"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken
"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum

Hi,
When calculating an interval bar at any other time throughout the day the total volume can be reconciled by summing the incremental volume. However, this isn't true of the open. The opening cumulative volume starts with a number that doesn't include any trades that can be seen. Where does this initial volume come from?
Thanks,
Dave

For some commodity types, not all volume included in "Total Volume" statistic exists in ticks. Implied trades and block trades are types of trades where this can happen. They don't have their own ticks, but the volume of these type of trades is included in the total volume of the session. The exchange sends the total volume with each trade message, so you may see increases in volume that the ticks alone don't account for.

Sincerely,
Gary Stephen
