Tick = The price at which an individual trade has been executed. (in close field)
5 min = all ticks in 5 min period. First trade=O, highest =H, lowest=L, last=C 60 min = all ticks in 60 min period. First trade=O, highest =H, lowest=L, last=C Daily = all ticks in an entire day's trading session. First trade=O, highest =H, lowest=L, last=C Realtime = you see the ticks come through as they occur Delayed = the ticks are delayed by X minutes End-of-day = the ticks are only provided after the market shuts Bid and Ask are completely different animals. In some OTC securities (such as Forex) they do not report actual trades. A tick occurs whenever a new Bid/Ask pair arrives. Therefore you either have a Bid chart (comprised of Bids only) or an Ask Chart (comprised of asks). Best regards, Richard Dale.
