The trade ticker

The trade ticker is designed to provide a snapshot of of live activity and market movements. The top row shows the most recent Liv-ex transactions. Green denotes that the wine has traded at a discount to the previous transaction and blue indicates that it has traded above the previous transaction. If there is no change in price, blue signifies that the bid has risen to match the offer, while green signifies that the offer has dropped to meet the bid. The second row shows firm bids (to buy) and offers (to sell). Bids are shown in green and offers are shown in blue.
