In market BY price data (level 2) we can use fields LV_TIM_MS or LV_TIM_NS to get the timestamp of updates. However if an update consist of just DELETE updates, these fields are not set and the only time related fields left to use are TIMACT_MS or TIMACT_NS. However sometimes TIMACT get substantially behind LV_TIM and is clearly wrong. See example. How can we determine the timestamp of the DELETE update then? If an order is deleted how can we get the exchange timestamp of the deletions? Example:
