CME trade-type metadata

Does Sierra Chart / Denali preserve CME trade-type metadata for off-book or negotiated transactions such as Block Trades, EFP/EFRP/EFS, and is this information exposed through ACSIL?

In particular, is there any field in `s_TimeAndSales`, intraday file records, or another ACSIL structure equivalent to a trade condition / OTC trade type flag?

The purpose is to exclude negotiated/off-book trades from a custom Time & Sales aggregation study, rather than infer them from volume or execution pattern.

Thanks

There is no such data like this that we are aware of:
CME trade-type metadata for off-book or negotiated transactions such as Block Trades, EFP/EFRP/EFS,

Also a Trade Condition is only applicable to equities markets. Not futures. And Sierra Chart does not pass that information through from the source data feed other than the indicator of an Odd Lot trade. And later, we will flag alternative display facility trades (FINRA specific).
