Fields:
- Timestamp (U.S. Eastern):
- Current: Date and time -> yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.000 (ex: "2020-01-01 21:11:50.627") Records are in chronological order.
- Legacy: Time only -> hh:mm:ss.000 (ex: "21:11:50.627") Records are are *not* in chronological order, but instead sorted by raw timestamp which spans 2 calendar days. Records with 00:00 to < 17:00 time stamps take place implicitly on the date in the file name. Records 17:00 to < 24:00 are from the prior calendar date.
- Event Identifier: Unique ID corresponding to each individual order
- Event Type:
- S (Snapshot): Can come in groups (several rows). When encountered, discard existing snapshot and build a new one with all consecutive "S" rows.
- N (New): New order on the order book. There can be an "N" event with a price that already exists on the book. In this case the quantities should be accumulated for that price.
- C (Cancel): Order corresponding to this EventIdentifier has been removed from the book.
- Bid/Ask: Bid = 1, Ask = 2
- Price: Exchange rate expressed in units of Counter Currency
- Quantity: Units of Base Currency
