    Hi @justin21. The message payload depends on the asset class and also the venue where the instrument is being traded.

    For equity quotes, you should see TRDTIM_MS, QUOTIM_MS or TIMCOR_MS, depending on if it is a trade message or a quotation or a correction.

    The _MS fields carry the time of event in milliseconds. See this for information on how to convert ms to time.
