This message type provides a description of each market maker and the size of their quote at the top 10

NASDAQ instrument 0#<symbol>.O, and consolidating the top 10 prices for each of the market makers

data stream. For example, assume that MSFT.O has 300 different market makers; all 300 market

makers, e.g. MSFTARCX.O are consolidated to provide a listing of all the market makers at the 10 best

price levels.

Nasdaq Level II messages are only applicable to the following exchanges:

NASDAQ Stock Market Large Cap (NMS) - <symbol>.O RICs only

NASDAQ Capital Market (Small Cap) (NAS) - <symbol>.O RICs only

NASD Consolidated Issues Large Cap (NMQ) - <symbol>.O RICs only

NASD Consolidated Issues Capital Market (Small Cap) (NAQ) - <symbol>.O RICs only

Intraday Time Bar Messages

All Intraday Time Bar Messages are constructed on the fly from either Trade or Quote messages.

Transactions are summarised into discrete time-series intervals anywhere from 1 second to 1 hour in

duration.

The initial trade in the interval is mapped to the Open field while the last trade is mapped to the Close

field. The highest price is mapped to the High field while the lowest field is mapped to the Low field.

Volume is the cumulation of all traded volume over the interval.

Average price is the sum of all the trade prices divided by the number of all the trades, while the VWAP

is the volume weighted average price over the interval.

VWAP is calculated using the following formula:

∑ Pj x Qj

VWAP = _____

∑ Qj

Pj = price of trade j

Qj = quantity of trade j

j = each individual trade that takes place over the defined interval, including all on-market and off-

market trades.

The time field represents the start of the Time Bar interval, e.g. for the 10 minute interval, 10:00:00.000

represents all trades over the range 10:00:00.000 to 10:09:59.999.

If there are no trades within a Time Bar, that Time Bar is not displayed, e.g. assume the last trade for

the day is at 16:01:04.453, then assuming a 5 Minute time bar, the last interval in the time-series for that

day is 16:00:00.000

The Fields that are highlighted in bold and black represent the default fields for Intra-Day. The field that

are greyed -out represent fields that are not defaults, but are available for only a subset of exchanges or

markets.

qualifier field is set to "No Data", e.g. weekend dates and non-trading days will have "No Data" populated

in the qualifier field. The timestamp for the message is always blank.

Tick History provides End of Day data from two sources.

Notes Accessing delisted instruments - it is possible to reference delisted instruments by their delisted RIC. Delisted RIC syntax consist of a ^after the original RIC followed by a month code and a year code that signifies when the RIC was actually delisted.

Example: RIC ABC.L is delisted in January 2002. The delisted RIC is ABC.L^A02 (A=January,

B=February, etc and 02 signifies 2002). RICs that were delisted prior to 1995 do not have a Delisted RIC

and historical data is not available for those instruments.

Rules are applied to RICs to allow delisted RICs to be referenced without having to know the expiry

month and year:

If the RIC does not exist, but a single matched delisted RIC does exists, the delisted RIC can be matched by the original RIC, e.g. ONE.AX will return data for ONE.AX^H01.

If a single delisted RIC exists, it can be referenced by appending a ^ to the RIC, e.g. ONE.AX^ will match the delisted RIC ONE.AX^H01.

Where multiple delisted RICs exist for a RIC, each delisted RIC must be explicitly referenced, e.g.

C.PH^B09 or C.PH^K98.

Delisted RICs no not have a IDN real-time equivalent, it is therefore important to select the "Never"

Verify RICs option in Preferences prior to adding the instrument to the instrument list.

The delisted RIC is ABC.L^A02 (A=January, B=February, etc and 02 signifies 2002). RICs that were delisted prior to 1995 do not have a Delisted RIC and historical data is not available for those instruments. Rules are applied to RICs to allow delisted RICs to be referenced without having to know the expiry month and year: If the RIC does not exist, but a single matched delisted RIC does exists, the delisted RIC can be matched by the original RIC, e.g. ONE.AX will return data for ONE.AX^H01. If a single delisted RIC exists, it can be referenced by appending a ^ to the RIC, e.g. ONE.AX^ will match the delisted RIC ONE.AX^H01. Where multiple delisted RICs exist for a RIC, each delisted RIC must be explicitly referenced, e.g. C.PH^B09 or C.PH^K98. Delisted RICs no not have a IDN real-time equivalent, it is therefore important to select the "Never" Verify RICs option in Preferences prior to adding the instrument to the instrument list.

If these changeable characters are removed, the root becomes "RTRlf". Some single stock futures have a RIC syntax of MSFT1Z8:OX with an exchange suffix. In these cases the futures RIC root will either have the syntax MSFT:OX or MSFTox, but all RICs on the same series will have the same RIC root as usual.

Notes Accessing delisted instruments - it is possible to reference delisted instruments by their delisted RIC. Delisted RIC syntax consist of a ^after the original RIC followed by a month code and a year code that signifies when the RIC was actually delisted. Example: RIC ABC.L is delisted in January 2002. The delisted RIC is ABC.L^A02 (A=January, B=February, etc and 02 signifies 2002). RICs that were delisted prior to 1995 do not have a Delisted RIC and historical data is not available for those instruments. Rules are applied to RICs to allow delisted RICs to be referenced without having to know the expiry month and year: If the RIC does not exist, but a single matched delisted RIC does exists, the delisted RIC can be matched by the original RIC, e.g. ONE.AX will return data for ONE.AX^H01. If a single delisted RIC exists, it can be referenced by appending a ^ to the RIC, e.g. ONE.AX^ will match the delisted RIC ONE.AX^H01. Where multiple delisted RICs exist for a RIC, each delisted RIC must be explicitly referenced, e.g. C.PH^B09 or C.PH^K98. Delisted RICs no not have a IDN real-time equivalent, it is therefore important to select the "Never" Verify RICs option in Preferences prior to adding the instrument to the instrument list.
