Post From: SierraChart realtime datafeed issues

1. For the CL, it does appear from the Time and Sales window, that market depth is subscribed to. There is rather clear evidence of this. You may not be aware that it is subscribed to.

The only issue is that the timestamp for the Bid and Ask quote update is off. The reason this happens is because when market depth data is subscribed to, the depth updates do not contain a timestamp and instead your local computer clock is used. So this indicates your local computer clock is off. See help topic 38:
Http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/helpdetails38.html

We will see about adding a timestamp to those messages. But we hesitate because it takes space and increases bandwidth usage.

2. Same issue is #1.

3. This would be very surprising because the data comes straight from the exchange feed. Every bid and ask price change or size change is sent through. Sierra Chart really will be the best point of reference unless there is some mishandling of the data feed on the backend but this would be unlikely. Anyway, that is not too hard for us to determine.
