National Best Bid and Offer (NBBO) was created by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) to help ensure that brokers provide their customers with the best available bid and ask prices when buying and selling securities.
An order book is a list of orders that presents different offers from buyers and sellers for a specific security. It shows the prices and volumes that traders in the market are willing to buy and sell the security for.
NBBO Quotes presents the best bid & ask by collecting bids and asks from 16 U.S. exchanges. You can switch to Details mode to view all top of book quotes (if any) for individual exchanges. Note that an order book needs to meet quantity requirement (at least 100 shares) before it can appear in NBBO Quotes.

Below the Order Book, Time & sales (Tick-by-tick Data) shows every trade made and provides volume, price, direction, and time data for each trade.
With NBBO Quotes, you can see the time & sales transaction data from 16 U.S. exchanges and FINRA TRF.


The table below shows the 16 U.S. exchanges and FINRA TRF that are covered by NBBO Quotes.
