GlassHouse, The site shows trades that go off 15-20 minutes after the close. They are listed as frmT which I think means firm Transfer. In any event, its not uncommon for trades to happen 15-20 minutes after the close. These trades are within the bid ask range and they count in the day's volume, but don't affect the closing price. The site also shows changes in the bid and ask before trading begins (usually starting at 8:15) as well as trades that are ordered for the open. The site is also usefull for real time changes in the bid ask. If you click on the individual trades, you will see bid and ask (including size) as well as the last trade. This bid/ask data is really a combo of the 15 min delay and real time. The trades are 15 min delay, so if the bid or ask price and size match what is on the 15 min delay liast of trades, then that's the delayed price. However, if it doesn't match, then its the real time bid or ask.
