I find that when I execute: "HTT,GOOGL,20190409 000000,20190409 235959,10,155959,160004,1,TESTREQUEST" I get: TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:00.391602,1203.6000,100,948999,1203.2900,1203.3900,10031,E,5,17,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:00.391610,1203.7100,200,949199,1203.2900,1203.3900,10032,E,5,17,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:00.391615,1203.7700,50,949249,1203.2900,1203.3900,10033,O,5,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:00.479088,1202.6900,118,949367,1203.2900,1203.3900,5885,E,19,17,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:00.701530,1203.2900,1,949368,1203.2900,1203.3900,10034,O,5,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:01.215912,1202.6900,41,949409,1203.2900,1203.3900,5886,O,19,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:01.215982,1202.6900,6,949415,1203.2900,1203.3900,5887,O,19,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:01.227863,1202.6900,14,949429,1203.2900,1203.3900,5888,O,19,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:01.259771,1202.6900,39,949468,1203.2900,1203.3900,5889,O,19,8717,48,9, TESTREQUEST,2019-04-09 16:00:02.630410,1203.2900,100,949568,1203.2900,1203.7100,10035,E,5,17,48,9, This almost lines up with the example response given at the bottom of the link I gave, apart from the penultimate column (which I understand should be trade aggressor, with values 0-3) is 48. I've (at least tried to) set the protocol to 6.1. Could anyone shine any light on why my trade aggressor field appears to have an invalid value? Thanks for your help in advance.

We are looking into this now. As an aside, there will never be any trade aggressor data in the API as far back as April. The exchanges only started providing this data about May 25 of this year. The field should say 0 in this case. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

I ran the same HTT command last yesterday, and got 0 in the TradeAggressor field where it should be. We are still working on it, though.

So I really don't know what happened. Definitely let me know if it happens again. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist
