I want to understand ProtoOATickData
27 Dec 2019, 08:42

It is ProtoOATickData sequence contained in ProtoOAGetTickDataRes, but 0-th but is on the easy-to-understand timestamp and tick value,

I do not know the meaning of the later elements.

for example,
0 timestamp:1577428963249 tick:10950900 
1 timestamp:-100 tick:-100 
2 timestamp:-6035 tick:-100 
3 timestamp:-3907 tick:100 
4 timestamp:-289 tick:100 
5 timestamp:-1641 tick:-100 
6 timestamp:-100 tick:100 
7 timestamp:-200 tick:-100 
8 timestamp:-203 tick:-100

Hi bolatfx,

The first value represents an actual timestamp and an actual price (to get the price just divide by 100.000)

0 timestamp:1577428963249 tick:10950900 

The rest of the values represent the difference from the previous value. Let me know if this is clear.

Thanks, Panagiotis.

I want to confirm further,

1. Isn't it sorted in timestamp order?

2. Is the 0th element the last tickdata?

Sorry I am not 100% sure I got it. 

 

0 timestamp:1577428963249 tick:10950900 
1 timestamp:-100 tick:-100 
2 timestamp:-6035 tick:-100 
 

So timestamp 1 is 1577428963249 + (-100) or 1577428963249 - (-100)?
