 +===== On Price Activation Order =====
 +
 +**On Price Activation Orders** will be held (i.e. suspended) in the **T4 FIX API** server until the market trades at or below, or at or above, the activation price (as entered with the **Activation Value** - Tag 10103).  
 +At this activation point, the order is released to the exchange.
 +
 +An Activation Order is entered with the **New Order Single** (Tag 35=D) message.  
 +Following are the most relevant tags to build an On Price Activation Order:
 +
 +^ Tag ^ Field ^ Description ^
 +| 10102=3 (or 10102=2) | Activation Type | Specifier of Activation Order: At-Or-Below-TradePrice (3) or At-Or-Above-TradePrice (2) |
 +| 10103   | Activation Value | Set to the Activation price (in ticks) |
 +| 48      | SecurityID | Market for which the order is sent |
 +| 55      | Symbol | Contract for which the order is sent |
 +| 207     | SecurityExchange | Exchange for which the order is sent |
 +| 167     | SecurityType | Security Type (e.g. Futures) of this specific market |
 +
 +----
 +
 +**Activation Value Format** (**Tag 10103**):  
 +`Ticks;Activation Cancel Time;Cancel Time;Volume`
 +
 +  * **Ticks** – Required. Price in ticks that triggers the order.  
 +  * **Activation Cancel Time** – Optional. Time to cancel the order if not yet activated.  
 +    - Can be a date/time in format `dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss` or seconds from now.  
 +  * **Cancel Time** – Optional. Time to cancel the order after activation.  
 +    - Same formats as above.  
 +  * **Volume** – Optional. Minimum last trade total volume at the activation price before activation.  
 +    - If the market trades through the activation price, the order will activate regardless of volume.
 +
 +----
 +
 +**Examples of ActivationValue:**
 +
 +  * `12867` – Activates when price trades at 12867 ticks if the market allows order submission.  
 +  * `12867;100` – Activates at 12867 ticks; cancels after 100 seconds if not yet activated.  
 +  * `12867;100;05 Jul 2012 18:00:00` – Activates at 12867 ticks; cancels after 100 seconds if not activated; cancels again at given time if activated but incomplete.  
 +  * `12867;;1000` – Activates when price trades 1000 or more lots at 12867 ticks since last traded price, if the market allows submission.
 +
 +----
 +
 +**Sample**
 +
 +In this example, the activation order is submitted, accepted by the **T4 FIX API**, and awaits activation until the market trades at the input price (**ActivationValue** - Tag 10103) of **149250**.  
 +When a trade occurs at **149250**, the order is activated and submitted to the exchange as a **Buy** (Tag 54=1) **Limit Order** (Tag 40=2) at the price of **149200** (Tag 44).
