OTC Workflow

The typical OTC transaction flow:

1. Call Request Quote to get a price quote.
2. Ｔhen exchange responds with a quote.
3. Accept: Send the quote ID to Accept Quote. Exchange executes the trade.
4. Query status: Use Query Quote to check the state of any quote.
5. If Exchange rejects the quote (e.g. price moved), a new quote is returned with the rejection reason.
