Enhanced Transaction Solution
This interface gives members faster, streamlined access to the Eurex® system for high-frequency
trading strategies, focusing on core trading activities like order and quote entry as well as
maintenance functionality.
The Enhanced Transaction Solution is a session-oriented interface, which means that a session is
the basic context of the interaction with the Eurex® system. A session is initiated when an
application connects and continues until the connection is interrupted. Several trader subgroups
may share a single session, but any session may only be used once. A given member has a set number
of sessions (at present a maximum of 25), depending on his technical requirements.
