In a NewOrderSingle message, how can I distinguish between a Spot, Forward or Swap deal.
For a swap deal, there is a specific OrdType value (G).
Thanks

On our New Order Single, we use SecurityType = “FOR” to identify F/X and the value of FutSettlDate effectively determines whether it’s a Spot or Forward. Our F/X dealers “know” the spot date for a currency. As you noted there is an OrdType = “Forex - Swap” value.
