EL and using SECONDS for Tick Data.

["James Lillard" <lillard.main@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to reference SECONDS when using tick data with TS2000i?
I notice that when I go to EDIT tick data, in the GLOBAL SERVER, I see the
time of the data points in seconds.  But I cannot figure out how to
reference seconds when I am in EL or in an actual tick chart that uses
single tick bars.

Can anyone give me a suggestion as to how to make, say 30 seconds bars from
tick data.  I have seen times where there are over 600 ticks in a single
minute, and I think that the day is approaching when we will need to
reference tick data by the second.  Right now you can enter electronic
orders and have them fill within less than 5 seconds.

What are your ideas and opinions?
