Bullish clients can authorize individual traders within an institution to trade on the Bullish exchange via FIX API. FIX connections can be configured by an Authorized Representative through the Bullish exchange web interface.
To configure FIX connections:
- Go to your User Menu in the upper right corner of the screen.
- Choose Settings.
- Choose FIX Credential.
- Choose Add FIX Credential.
- In the Add FIX Credential pop-up window, enter the Credential Name and select the Users and Trading Account(s). Then you can enter or generate a Password.
Note: Individual user permissions are still enforced when connecting via FIX. Users who are given access to FIX must have permission to access all of the trading accounts that are configured for the credential.
- Choose Authenticate Credential.
- Perform Webauthn.
- Enter your 6-digit Bullish PIN.
- Save your FIX password and choose Confirm.
The Authorized Representative will be able to select the users within their institution who should have access to the FIX connection, as well as the Trading Accounts that should be accessible via FIX, before setting the password. Please note that this configuration must be updated whenever a new user or trading account is added that requires FIX access. Currently edit is not supported so the credential must be deleted and recreated, but the user has the option to reuse the same password if they choose to minimize disruption.
