Can anyone please clarify for me...

I thought the daily volume reported from daily historic requests included only trades during market hours 9:30am-4pm EST. But it looks like this is not the case. On 6/24, most stocks of the scores I checked did half or more of their trades after-hours according to the intraday statistics.

So when final volume is reported for a “day” what time period is this supposed to cover? 9:30am to 9:30am the next day? Midnight to midnight? Is there a special cutoff time each evening a few hours after market close?

I understand the numbers will not always agree exactly -- the exchanges report their official numbers based on adjustments we don't have visibility into.

Many thanks!
Jonathan

Johnathan, essentially the timeframe is midnight to midnight. Daily volume is the cumulative volume of all trades which includes pre/post market trading and other non-last-qualifying trades.
