Key Features
For clients looking to access normalized data the ICE Consolidated Feed provides functionality that allows for seamless application programming, using proprietary symbology that is easy to consume, human-readable and based on exchange tickers. Reference data fields are presented in a consistent format with popular fields such as Instrument Types, Marketplace Codes and Instrument Names available in both ICE proprietary and native exchange format. Additional third-party identifiers, such as CUSIP & ISIN are also available (note that some may require separate licensing).
Covering both individual instrument status (normal/halted/suspended) and market phase (auction/continuous/etc.), the ICE Consolidated Feed presents status as a globally consistent set of values, while also maintaining a separate set of fields with the native exchange presentation. Including both native exchange timestamps in their original time zone and granularity, and ICE system timestamps in UTC, gives clients flexibility and choice, that carries through to the tick-by-tick files provided by ICE Consolidated History.
