"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"I've never had DTN go out on me since switching. ******* would go down a couple times every month when I was using them." - Comment from Bryce in AL.

"I just wanted to tell you what a fine job you have been doing. While *******, from what I hear, has been down and out, off and on, IQ feed has held like a champ this week." - Comment from Shirin

"There is no doubt that IQFeed is the best data provider. I am very satisfied with your services. And IQFeed is the only one that I would recommend to my friends. Now, most of them are using your product in China." - Comment from Zhezhe

"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

"I'm satisfied with IQFeed. It's the most reliable and fastest quote feed I have ever used. Although I'm a resident in China, it's still very fast!" - Comment from Xiaofei

"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

Author	Topic: Clearing the Total Volume field in Futures (6 messages, Page 1 of 1)
mrak -Interested User- Posts: 7 Joined: Mar 20, 2014 What, me worry?	Posted: Apr 24, 2015 02:10 PM Msg. 1 of 6 For the past several years I have been under the impression that the Total Volume field was cleared once a day. Then about a month ago I downloaded some historical data that had the Total Volume field cleared once a week. Today I downloaded data that, once again, shows Total Volume cleared once a day. As I can find no documentation on this, please let me know: How often is the Total Volume Field cleared? At what time of the day or week? Is it the same for all futures? Thanks, Mark

Posted: Apr 24, 2015 03:16 PM Msg. 3 of 6 Well, right now I'm looking at @ESH16 historical data from 4/21/2015 and it appears that the Total Volume field is cleared daily. I am also looking at saved realtime data for @ESZ14 from the week of 11/9/14 and I see that Total Volume is cleared at the start of the week when the market opens and increases continuously for the whole week. Both fields are called "Total Volume", although I'm suspecting that they're not really the same thing... Mark

Can you compare your stored values to data from a current request? I just did a quick check and they look like they are clearing daily for your timeframes. Assuming you see correct data now, my best guess was that there was a bug back then that caused the volume to not clear.

I just checked the Realtime @ESM15 data for this week and have confirmed that the TotalVolume is NOT reset daily. It just keeps increasing throughout the week from market open on Sunday. Please let me know if this is a bug or if the realtime TotalVolume behaves differently than the historical TotalVolume. Thanks, Mark
