Hi dear,
When I download tick data for one symbol. It gives me format like this.
Date, Time, Open, High, Low, Last, Volume, NumberOfTrades, BidVolume, AskVolume
2025/3/27, 15:41:22.322, 3268.0, 3271.6, 3268.0, 3268.0, 1, 1, 1, 0

My question is if this is tick data, why does it still show open, high, low, last? Shouldn't all the prices be the same? And ask volume value is 0, it means this trade is aggressive sell direction?
Pls help me.
Thanks
Charlie
