Hello support, I see the setting to color text/background in the time and sales when a trade occurs above the ask or below the bid (Time and Sale Above Ask Trade Text). However I was reviewing other support board posts and came across this one Study which shows Trades above Ask or Below Bid and this one Time and Sales Highlights That seem to indicate that trades cannot occur above or below the bid ask. Specifically you said: "No, this does not exist. This is not even technically possible to occur. The market data sometimes may indicate this. However, that really cannot be accurate. And also whether a trade occurs at the Bid or Ask is given by an indication from the exchange, not by Sierra Chart." And: "Also, an order cannot execute above the ask price or below the bid price. If any data feed is showing that, it just has to do with how the exchange is transmitting data." So my question is what is the purpose of the setting to color text/background of a trade that occurs above the ask or below the bid if that is not technically possible? |
