Hi thanks for the reply

Is it also the same for index volume readings ?

On July 31st 2007 .. I have on google 2.55 billion as volume for the nasdaq composite index.

On TC2007 for COMPX (Nasdaq Composite Index) I read 28226 as volume. If I multiply by 100 (add 2 zeros) it becomes 2822600 ... which is around 2.8 millions ? that cant be it.
There seems to be another three zeros missing to make it 2.8 billions.

Thanks for your help.

qew,
All regular symbols in the program are truncated to the 100’s place and therefore would need to have two zeros added.

For the following symbols, five zeros need to be added:

SP-500
OEX
DJX--X
NYSE
NDX--X
COMPQX
MNX—X

The indexes in TeleChart are published without volume with a few exceptions. Total volume is reported for the NYSE Composite (NYSE), AMEX Composite (XAX) and the NASDAQ Composite (COMPQX). The following indexes are also reported with volumes, but the volume figures come from one of the three composite indexes above. We report them this way so you’ll have a reference to the overall market volume when using these indexes.

Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJ-30) - DJ-30 volume
Standard & Poor’s 500 (SP-500) - NYSE volume
Standard & Poor’s 100 (OEX) - NYSE volume
NASDAQ 100 Index - COMPQX volume
