Hi there,

Can someone explain what are the meanings of the AccountType (581) enumeration? Is it suitable to indicate if the account belongs to a customer or to the brokerage firm? If positive, what are the values that I should use for that? 1 and 2?

Please find the enumeration below:

Thanks for your help,

Andrei Goldchleger

1 : Account is carried on customer Side of Books
2 : Account is carried on non-Customer Side of books
3 : House Trader
4 : Floor Trader
6 : Account is carried on non-customer side of books and is cross margined
7 : Account is house trader and is cross margined
8 : Joint Backoffice Account (JBO)
