<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I'm new to QuickFIX/n. I need to know:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1. Does QuickFIX/n guarantee that the time ordering of incoming messages is perserved?
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>In other words, if Joe sends a Buy 100 shares of IBM, then sends Sell 100 shares of IBM immediately thereafter, and I guaranteed that my app will ALWAYS receive the messages in this order?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>2. If so, how is this implemented?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks in advance,</p>
<p>gstevens<br>
</p>
