Time and Sales

68 bytes removed, 7 May
no edit summary
Time & Sales information is used by professional traders to monitor the current price movements at its most detailed level. Time & Sales shows each individual trade as it occurs, and is displayed as a scrolling list. Time & Sales shows the exact price that each trade occurs at, and also whether the trade occurred at the bid or ask. This information shows whether there are currently more buyers or sellers, and also what prices they are buying and selling at. Also, Time & Sales shows the amount of volume that each trade includes (the number of contracts that were traded). This shows whether there are more contracts being bought or sold, and at which prices the largest amounts of volume are trading.
