AlgoCertificateRequest (MsgType = EH, FIXML = AlgoCertificateRequest)

AlgoCertificateRequest(35=EH) is used to request algo testing certificate information for one or more algorithms.

This message may be used by venues to request algo test certificates from their participants using participant and algo identifiers as the request key. Absence of an identifier for an algorithm represents a request to obtain all active certificates for all algorithms from the participant.

This message may also be used by clients of algo trading firms to request the certified algos they are eligible to use.
