I'm seeing problems with historical data for the day of 2016-09-26. Specifically, the volume and number of trades are both several times as large as they should be (though the price is little changed). The comparison data that I am using is what I collected on the day of 2016-09-26 through our subscription.

It appears that a large number of extra ticks have simply been added to many stocks. Because the prices are reasonable, I'm wondering whether they are from a different source (such as dark pools).

This isn't a huge problem for us right now. I'm simply ignoring historical data from 2016-09-26. However, it is obviously disconcerting, and my primary concern is avoiding future instances of this problem.

Anyway, here's an example of the sort of difference that I'm seeing for CSBR on 2016-09-26. For what it's worth, Yahoo agrees with the volume of the existing ticks we originally received through our subscription on 2016-09-26. See https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=CSBR

We've seen hundreds of other, similar examples.

Hello,

I was just going over this, sorry for the delay in reply, the tick data for the 26th on CSBR appears to total up to 19459, which is what I show on the daily volume as well, and that appears to match what Yahoo is showing as well. Is this something that has already fixed itself?

Tim

Possibly. For us, it appeared on the 27th, then went away on the 28th, and then came back.
