The U.S. Equities Trade and Quote Extended Minute Bar dataset provides a high-resolution, analytics-rich minute-by-minute view of U.S. equity market activity, derived from consolidated trade and quote (TAQ) data. Each one-minute bar contains approximately 90 calculated metrics, capturing detailed price behavior, quote dynamics, and order-flow characteristics. In addition to standard Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume (OHLCV) measures, the dataset includes a broad set of market microstructure indicators, such as trade classification at bid/mid/ask, uptick and downtick counts, bid-ask spread analytics, and time-weighted bid and ask measures. These features are designed to support intraday liquidity analysis, signal research, and fine-grained behavioral modeling. The dataset uses a continuous minute-bar timeline. When no trading or quote updates occur during a given minute, the most recent bid and ask values are carried forward, ensuring a complete and gap-free time series that simplifies downstream joins and model construction. Data is derived from Equity Securities Information Processor (SIP) feeds and includes all eligible trades and top-of-book quotes, including off-exchange trades reported to FINRA Trade Reporting Facilities (TRF). Coverage spans all major U.S. equity issue types, including common and preferred stocks, ETFs, ETNs, ADRs, warrants, and units.

For more details, please refer to the dataset documentation: US Equities Trade and Quote Extended Minute Bar Guide.
