does anyone know what these quotes mean?

Quote from FastandFurious:

"49.75 49.70 49. 80 5 150 5 _49.75 4_49.76"

it's from Don of Bright Trading's website:

http://www.stocktrading.com/tape.htm

what are the bids, ask, and the prints?

49.75 is the last trade price
49.70 is the bid
49.80 is the ask
5 is the bid size... always mulitply by 100 with this so 5 = 500 shares
150 is the ask size 150 x 100 = 15000 shares.

5_49.75 is the last trade sold was 500 shares at 49.75
4_49.76 was the trade before that 400 shares at 49.76

:) Simple right? :)
