Thanks Richard, This clarifies (And opens some more) questions. If I am just receiving "Ticks" does that include both volume & price? Also if I am using Tick only data, Then would that break the functionality of instruments that require O/H/L eg HHV() and LLV()?
And 5min/60min/EOD are the same data style. (And are all considered "Delayed") KR Michael. Richard Dale wrote: > > Tick = The price at which an individual trade has been executed.
