Trades occurring at other locations. Even if the other location are operating in discretized time, there's going to be variability in how fast different market participants can transmit information from one location to another. From Wolfram Alpha, Tokyo to NYC is 36ms at speed of light in vacuum and 51ms at speed of light in fiber, so someone with a faster network could be multiple discretized ticks ahead.
