The TimeSales display tracks each trade and quote as it comes in. Time,
Price, Market, and Condition are displayed.
Prices are highlighted for different conditions: Quotes are tinted to differentiate them from trade information. If the quote represents a new inside price, it is flagged inside, otherwise new size. If either the the bid price or the offer price has changed from the previous inside market position, the new price will be boldfaced and color coded for direction: green for up, red for down. As trades arrive, they are identified as occurring at the bid or at the offer and put in the Vol@Bid or Vol@Ask columns. Trades ocurring below the bid are flagged in red (above the offer flagged in green). In addition, any trades 5,000 shares or over will be boldfaced. You can skip to the beginning of the day (double left arrow), end of the day (double right arrow), you can page forward and backward through the day (single arrows). You can specify a certain time or day by directly entering it. We keep five trading days of time and sales data on file. Clicking BriefT will display only trades >= 5,000 shares; clicking BriefQ will limit the display to only inside market changes. As with other Corona screens, the font, the background color, the page size and position can be modified by you, and your changes will be remembered during your next session. |
