FIX Protocol Tag 41: OrigClOrdID

ClOrdID (11) of the previous order in the chain (not the first order of the day). Cancel and cancel/replace requests use it to identify the order to change.

Practical notes on OrigClOrdID

OrigClOrdID points a cancel or replace at the order it changes. It holds the ClOrdID of the last accepted request in the order's chain.

  • After a replace is confirmed (ExecType 150=5), the replace's ClOrdID becomes the one to use as OrigClOrdID in the next cancel or replace.
  • Execution Reports for cancels and replaces carry it too, so the client can link the new ClOrdID to the old one.

Common mistakes

  • Using the first ClOrdID of the order after one or more replaces. The venue answers with an Order Cancel Reject, CxlRejReason 1 (Unknown order).

Changes between FIX versions

  • Required on Order Cancel Request and Cancel/Replace in FIX 4.2 and 4.4. In FIX 5.0 SP2 it is optional, because the order can be identified by OrderID (37) instead.
