How does Tradestation make Tick Charts?

[jeffbg123]

Hey,

What does Tradestation consider to be 1 tick for an ES futures tick chart. CME sends out 1 LAST message for every passive order that is filled, so if I bought 1000 in one click it could send out 250 LAST messages. How many ticks is this transaction?

Thanks

what are you talking about?
where did you get that CME idea ???

I talked to Tradestation via phone and found out that 1 tick is 1 last message, which is 1 passive order (or partial passive order).

I got that CME idea from CME. If you have a question then ask it clearly....
