Configuring the FIX Client

In our testing and developments, we have used FIXYL desktop application as our FIX client to make test connections and live trading sessions. The app is available for Mac and Windows. The latest installer can be downloaded from: Fixyl v1.0.12

On Mac, download the DMG file and follow the installtion steps. On Windows, download the EXE file and run the application. On other operating systems, it is advised to use other clients or build FIXYL from source code.

Below, you will find a screenshot of the FIXYL app's starting page.
