OATS Reporting Technical Specifications, NASD
OATS == Order Audit Trail System
All computer system clocks and mechanical time stamping devices must be
synchronized to within three seconds of the National Institute of Standards
and Technology (NIST) atomic clock. Any time provider may be used for
synchronization, however, all clocks and time stamping devices must remain
accurate within a three-second tolerance of the NIST clock.
