Hello,

We are on 15/02. Say we get these data from an Update Message

symbol: EMAH23
Last Date : 2022/02/14 17:11
Last Price : 235
Bid Time : 07:43:23
Bid : 230.25

My question is what is the bid date ? shoud we assume that it's always today's date ?

thank you
Tarek

Sorry for the delay here.

We do not have date fields for bid/ask in the feed. As a result, you cannot be certain that bid/ask values in a summary message are from the current day (especially true if you are requesting around midnight Eastern for symbols that update across midnight). However, any update message that indicates a bid or ask update occurred (based on the Message Contents field) can safely be assumed that the date for the bid/ask is the current date (again, based on Midnight Eastern).
