I have DTN which is also fed by Bridge. I'm always out of my day trades before
the closing range so I don't watch it that closely. Did note the large move in
the closing minute Wednesday but my T&S shows nothing out of the ordinary - I
believe that DTN time stamps are feed based and adjusted by Ensign to local
time.
