I've searched for a thread on Commsec condition codes but can't find anything surprisingly. But what I wanted to ask is what does codes like XT, XTSXOS in the 'condition' field in Commsec mean? e.g

Time Price Volume Value Condition
04:51:49 PM 9.869 91,630 904,296.47 XTSXOS
04:33:41 PM 9.900 47,700 472,230.00 XTSXOS
04:10:27 PM 9.900 838 8,296.20 XT
04:10:27 PM 9.900 150 1,485.00
04:10:27 PM 9.900 1,000 9,900.00

Is there a link with the definition all these types of codes? (I was going to post in the Acronym Thread topic but thought this was a bit too specific to Commsec no?)
 
XT on its own is just a crossing. This does not necessarily mean it was an actively brokered crossing - it can sometimes show up simply because the buyer and seller in an on-screen trade happen to be using the same broker.

XTSXOS: XT - crossing, SX - portfolio special crossing, OS - overseas. I'm not sure what you can read from this but they're usually a larger parcel being moved from one place to another and is an off screen/off market transaction. It could be an insto or large holder shuffling stocks from one holding company/portfolio to another or it could be a brokered transaction between two parties.
