Vitas,

I know that this seems to be good evidence to you that the E-mini did not trade at 1388.25 after 8:30 pm. But I am questioning the accuracy of the data provided in this site.

The reason that I am questioning this is that I remember distinctly that it traded above 1404 during the day some time between 10:00 to 12:00 AM. But if you search through that data, you will not find a quote on or above 1404.

Then I thought may be old age is getting to me, so I went back to look at the quote come site.

991201,1030,1399.750000,1404.250000,1398.500000,1403.000000,828
991201,1040,1403.000000,1403.500000,1401.000000,1402.250000,431
991201,1050,1402.000000,1402.750000,1400.250000,1400.250000,387
991201,1100,1400.500000,1404.250000,1400.250000,1403.750000,498
991201,1110,1403.750000,1404.250000,1400.000000,1400.250000,416
991201,1120,1400.250000,1401.250000,1399.500000,1400.250000,301
991201,1130,1400.250000,1402.500000,1399.750000,1401.000000,268
991201,1140,1401.000000,1403.000000,1400.500000,1402.500000,200

So this proves that I am not getting senile yet. Now Who knows which site has the correct data, but that is not the point. The point is that we are using Quote.com data in this contest. Therefore I claim that you have no case, unless you come up with the same stuff from the Quote.com site.

I was not trying to defend Ground Zero when I started looking at this data. I was more selfish in nature. I was trying to find out about my own trade (https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=12155030) that need resolution. But instead found that the quotes did not match at the time involved. I thought good old resourceful Vitas came to save me from being stuck in the mud. And it all goes for not. ----ggg---

Regards,

Jaime

You are right but on the wrong point because there is a large difference between 8PM and 8AM. The quotes provided at the site mentioned by you shows the quotes at 8AM. However, GZ got his order executed at 8PM. The difference is day and night (literally). I should not get myself involved in this but I am just trying to clear out the issue or am I missing something?

Vitas ..

Is this an example of "painting the tape?"

Vitas,

The quote site that we all use doesn't provide time and sales for the evening sessions, so the only way we can presume the order is filled is by watching the quote for a few minutes and take the mid range... you did send me a site for those T&S quotes, but was unable to figure out how to get to the minute traded...

Could you post the site again and explain a step by step way to get to the traded priced for each minute... this would avoid any further misreads....

TIA
