Platts to add new bate for Market Data

On December 16, 2016, Platts will implement a new bate, t bate, in Market Data. Currently there are no symbols with t bate. The new bate represents number of transactions or trades, also known as "deal count" in North America. The daily CSV files on Platts.com will be modified by adding a column "Trades(t)".

Please refer to the following link for FTP, CSV, sym and XML test files: http://www.platts.com/IM.Platts.Content/Downloads/Data/t bate test files.zip
