What does SecurityTradingStatusType represent in Blue Ocean ATS market data?
SecurityTradingStatusType is a regulatory status flag showing whether a security is quoting, trading, halted, or paused.
The SecurityTradingStatusType field is a regulatory designation that indicates the current state of a security based on listing market data from the Securities Information Processor (SIP).
Values may include:
-
Quoting – Market is accepting quotes, but trading is not active.
-
Trading – Security is actively tradable.
-
Halted – Security is halted.
-
Paused – Security is paused.
Important Note: Blue Ocean ATS cannot accept orders while a symbol is in a Quoting state. Orders are only accepted when a security is in an active Trading state.
