Hi, guys
I’m creating the trading platform as my master degree work. So what I need is to have someone with whom I can communicate via fix protocol, who could send responses to my messages.
Does anybody know such a test server with whom I can communicate without making a real trades.
Many thanks.
Hi Gasan Guseinov,
You would find the following useful:-
Alternately, you can setup a FIX Counterparty Engine using any open source FIX Engine. Or you could run another instance of your trading platform (in a seperate pc over LAN (you may be able to even run another instance on the same machine and address it as localhost if your trading application is not a singleton)) - this may take more effort, but you are not tied to the limitations of the “available” counterparties. I used this approach in my FIXperiments - my client to my server.
Forum for discussing FIX Testing / Application Testing is
http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/9
The Certification webpage of FIXProtocol.org at
contains only Fixed Income test documents (because those who do not have a Fixed Income may not be able to afford FIX Testing 
God bless the poor).
Which version of FIX are you planning to use?

Hi,
Check this one - http://www.quickfixengine.org/
This is a open source product. They have provided Fix Engine as well as Trading client application. so you can use those applications to simulate actual FIX messages.
