Large chunks of yesterday's Wall Street price data now missing - but I when I check my recording of the tick data, it is there


Recommended Posts

Wall Street, 10-Feb-2022 17:45:22 - 17:45:30

Today the IG chart data has a gap in that period, but yesterday there was data there. ( How do I know? - because I closed a spread bet in that period and then saw it was given a strange closing price, so I looked at the data). 

In this period and a few seconds before there was high volume trading and a substantial market drop. At the time I reviewed this in the live chart and I could see 1sec interval data for each second of that period. It was there yesterday but today I look and its gone ???

I also trade using the API and get tick prices from the stream. I write that data to file. In that period I got 49 ticker updates, so there was price info available, just I as the chart showed at the time.

I also downloaded ticker data from Dukascopy and the data is there also.     

Can anyone explain where this data has suddenly gone or why IG charts do not have it but others do?  

There is in fact a even bigger gap soon after and duckascopy also has data while IG does not.  

The reason I have focused on 17:45:22 - 17:45:30 is that closed a position at 17:45:29, and yet the closing price applied was "rewound" to that for 17:45:22. The ticker data says the price had moved in 46 points, so I lost 46 points on the bet

    • Investing in crypto is quite a thrilling venture if one has the right knowledge and the perseverance to handle the downside whenever they arise. Like any other industry, there are days when the going gets tough like we have been experiencing in the last couple of days. The sentencing of CZ to four months imprisonment might have also contributed to the market downturn due to his influence in the space however, the drop in price provides avenue for experienced traders to DCA and prepare ahead of market recovery. Coincidentally, there is an ongoing event on Bitget tagged "May savings carnival" where users can leverage to buy some specific tokens like USDT, BTC and ETH and earn incredible APR. This offer avails trader with prize pool of up to $1500 on their deposit if they meet the deposit requirement. Similarly, traders can subscribe to the exchange saving product and win a $500 Amazon gift cards. Personally, I feel this kind of events are geared towards giving back to the users in one form or the other as traders not only benefit from their trades but also receive cash prizes and gift which serves as a form of motivation to them. Have you won any of this cash prizes before? share your experience
    • This BTC dip is rough, but this BGB trade mining event sounds interesting.  I'll check it out! Might be a good way to hedge against the volatility.
