{{Quickfixn}} Issue sending requests to broker

[Grant Birchmeier]

It sounds like you are new to FIX in general (which is fine).  Let's see if
I can clear up a misconception that I think you are having.

The engine is built to support the default "vanilla" FIX message
dictionary.  This is the one defined in the FIX spec, but in reality, that
is probably best treated as a suggestion.  In practice, every FIX
counterparty customizes their dictionary.  Your broker is no exception --
UASQ is not a standard message type.

You need to update your FIX DataDictionary xml file to match your
counterparty's expectations exactly.  They should have documentation that
describes what messages they use and what fields are in each message.
