CFE Update on OCC Clearing Issues
February 28, 2018 12:03:23
The CFE Trade Desk has been working closely with the OCC to troubleshoot any reported clearing issues and will implement two changes to assist in mitigating any remaining clearing defaults at the OCC.
Effective at 5:00 p.m. CT on Wednesday, February 28, the CFE will no longer pass through any values that are sent in FIX Tag 440 (BOE ClearingAccount) to the OCC. TPHs should send their account information in FIX Tag 1 (BOE Account). TPHs may continue to populate FIX Tag 440 (BOE ClearingAccount) with up to four characters of optional data that will be sent back on BOE/FIX sessions and on any associated drop ports. TPHs may immediately resolve OCC defaults related to incorrect Tag 440 (ClearingAccount) values by clearing out this field on all new BOE/FIX messages to CFE.
Effective at 5:00 p.m. CT on Thursday, March 1, the CFE will update the Exec Brkr field value that is sent to the OCC from the CFE Firm ID to be the EFID. The EFID is specified in FIX Tag 115 (BOE ClearingFirm). This change is being made to allow TPHs to identify the EFID that was used on each trade at the OCC.
Please contact the CFE Trade Desk with any questions regarding these two changes.

Dissemination of the Cboe Volatility Index Spot Value
February 06, 2018 10:31:10
Summary
Effective, February 6, 2018, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (Cboe(r)), in its capacity as the reporting authority for the Cboe Volatility Index(r) (VIX(r) Index), modified the below underlined values in relation to the filtering process on VIX Index spot values during Cboe's regular trading hours (Cboe RTH) and extended trading hours (Cboe ETH) sessions. Values for the VIX Index are published approximately every 15 seconds during Cboe RTH from 8:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. Chicago time and during Cboe ETH from 2:15 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. Chicago time. This notice updates Cboe Options Information Circular IC17-062 and CFE Information Circular IC 17-051.
Filtering Process
The filtering process will utilize the following parameters:
1. The first VIX Index spot value calculated during the Cboe RTH session or the Cboe ETH session shall be the "baseline" VIX Index spot value.
2. Any value calculated after and within two (2) minutes of such baseline that is higher than the baseline value or lower than the baseline value by 0.49 or less volatility index points shall become the new baseline.
3. If values calculated after and within two (2) minutes of a baseline are lower than the baseline by 0.50 or more volatility index points, then the baseline VIX Index spot value will be republished as the VIX Index spot value.
4. If the published VIX Index spot values remain the same for a period of two (2) minutes because the calculated values are 0.50 or more volatility points lower than the baseline, the first value calculated after the two minute period shall become the new baseline VIX Index spot value.
5. Filtering is currently applied during the Cboe ETH session and is being extended to the Cboe RTH session.
6. Filtering will not apply to the first VIX Index spot value calculated at the start of the Cboe RTH session or the first VIX Index spot value calculated at the start of the Cboe ETH session; rather, as previously noted, the first VIX Index spot value of the Cboe RTH session (or the Cboe ETH session) is the initial baseline VIX Index spot value. This means that all other VIX Index spot values calculated during Cboe RTH and Cboe ETH will be determined using the filtering process.
