ts_recv |
uint64_t | The capture-server-received timestamp expressed as the number of nanoseconds since the UNIX epoch. See ts_recv. |
ts_event |
uint64_t | The matching-engine-received timestamp expressed as the number of nanoseconds since the UNIX epoch. See ts_event. |
rtype |
uint8_t | A sentinel value indicating the record type. Always 0 in the trades schema. See Rtype. |
publisher_id |
uint16_t | The publisher ID assigned by Databento, which denotes the dataset and venue. See Publishers. |
instrument_id |
uint32_t | The numeric instrument ID. See Instrument identifiers. |
action |
char | The event action. Always Trade in the trades schema. See Action. |

depth |
uint8_t | The book level where the update event occurred. |
price |
int64_t | The order price where every 1 unit corresponds to 1e-9, i.e. 1/1,000,000,000 or 0.000000001. See Prices. |
size |
uint32_t | The order quantity. |
flags |
uint8_t | A bit field indicating event end, message characteristics, and data quality. See Flags. |
ts_in_delta |
int32_t | The matching-engine-sending timestamp expressed as the number of nanoseconds before ts_recv . See ts_in_delta. |
sequence |
uint32_t | The message sequence number assigned at the venue. |
