Hello

I've read an article explaining the difference between them and understood it was volume, however it was said that for NYSE and AMEX denali NQTV covers more price activity. I pulled up WMT to compare and didn't notice much price/chart difference. But I've noticed significant difference in VWAP (purple line "vw" in the middle of a green zone) and if you look at volume and relative volume indicators the spikes are also in different places. Also I looked at numbers bars and turned out max volume price within a bar and dominant side volume coloring are also different often.
Could you please tell more about how volume is calculated for both? Because these 2 data feed show completely different picture for a short-term trader and it's not market depth, it should be actual (or relatively actual, with a standard multiplicator?) volume traded. Thanks in advance

The difference is simply that the volumes from the NASDAQ TotalView exchange are only from the primary exchange for a symbol. You are not getting all the volume from all the exchanges on which it is traded. This would result in exactly what you are seeing - differences in the traded volumes.

As to how this impacts you, you would need to determine what works best for you. We can not say.
