Post From: Scid records question, found open field which is not 0, FIRST_SUB_TRADE, or LAST_SUB_TRADE

I came across historical data in some tick files that doesn't seem to match the expected values of the following options:

SINGLE_TRADE_WITH_BID_ASK = 0.0;
FIRST_SUB_TRADE_OF_UNBUNDLED_TRADE = -1.99900095e+37;
LAST_SUB_TRADE_OF_UNBUNDLED_TRADE= -1.99900197e+37;

What does that mean?

The records have huge volume but a 0 trades count and 0 for both bid and ask volume. In this case the open value shows a price for the underlying instead of one of the constants above and they occur around this time for ESH23 2023-03-07T20:27:00Z.

Is this simply an anomaly in the data or are other values supported than the 3 listed above?

Thank you for the SW and data it is a joy to use.

Cheers.
