The price listed at cell number D159, the last cell in the series to be added, therefore was not included in the firm’s spreadsheet calculation of the cell number D160 subtotal price.

Moreover, correction may be allowed, even where the intended bid price cannot be determined exactly, provided there is clear and convincing evidence that the amount of the intended bid would fall within a narrow range of uncertainty and would remain low after correction.

 Bid tv - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
bid tv (known as bid-up.tv until 21 January 2005) is a digital television channel based in the UK that runs daily live auctions.
This now meant all bids acted as proxy bidding, so instead of the bid being entered at whatever is bid, the computer would now automatically bid-up to the value specified, and not over.
In January 2005, the channel was renamed Bid tv to reflect the fact that more of its auctions followed the price-drop tv method, meaning that bidders were only rarely bidding "up".
