In TRTH requestbody contentfieldnames which field name will give me if the trade is buy or sell?

I have looked at all the field names available and none of them indicate whether the trade is a buy or sell trade. Maybe I missed the name for that field.

Hello @ffiitb,

If you are able to post the complete request, it will help TRTH forum members and moderators to better understand the question at the API level?

What contentfields can I add which will tell me if the trade is a buy or a sell trade?

Hi @ffiitb,

You have not posted complete request endpoint as requested by Zoya. Unlike an order, I doubt a trade message has a buy or sell side. You can see the sample message and fields in the online API help and data content guide.

If you still need clarification, please raise a Content query from MyRefinitiv which will allow you to communicate with a Content expert.

Select *I need help understanding content within the product* and appropriate product e.g. 'Thomson Reuters Tick History'.

Hi @ffiitb,

In my understanding, any trade is both, someone bought and someone else sold, i.e. trade is never just one, either a buy or a sell.

Which is why I agree with @Gurpreet. that I would not expect a trade tick ( if you are requesting TickHistoryTimeAndSaleRequest) have a side.
