Wanted to know if anyone else is having issues with the format of the feed field values? For the last week or so I've been having issues with time stamp field 18 being empty also fields 4, 11 and 12 and other fields as well.

We identified and fixed the issue you and I discussed in chat.

It only affected option symbols.
It essentially caused the feed to ignore summary message for some symbols when you initiated a watch. This caused fields that would only be populated in a summary message to not get populated. For example, the Trade Time and Trade date fields were not getting populated for symbols that didn't trade frequently (but have traded).

I believe all the remaining fields that are blank are intentionally left that way either because the symbol hasn't traded or because it is intentionally cleared by the feed (like percent change when change is zero).

Let me know if you continue to have any similar issues.

What about the "XLF" example where fields 18 and 66 where both empty? that wasn't an option that was an ETF.

I don't believe XLF ever displayed this issue. XLF had a blank percent change when the change was zero (intended).
