What is the difference between snapshot data and Tick-by-Tick (TBT) data?

Snapshot Data: Captures market data at intervals (e.g., one sample per second). This can miss rapid price fluctuations that happen between snapshots, potentially leading to missed triggers.
Tick-by-Tick (TBT) Data: Provides a continuous stream of every trade, ensuring no price movement is missed. This results in more accurate matching of GTT criteria and reliable triggering of orders.
