Cs22trader,
You could "pack" values into the openInterest field using binary codes
or multipliers such as:
value1: 34.5
Value2: 119
Value3: 17%
openInterest = value1 * 1000000 + value2 * 1000 + value3 = 345119000.17
(The result must be a positive number.)
Or
Code1: Buy = true or false
Code2: Sell = true or false
Code3: X = true or false
Code4: Y = true or false
openInterest = Code1 + Code2 * 2 + Code3 * 4 + Code4 * 8;

| Hi Terry. Yes, that it is a really good idea. I hadn't considered

|
| thanks!
