Post From: NISS-NYSE (Adv-Dec) + NYSE TICK Calculation At Open

One of the basic reasons why what the others are showing is inherently wrong at the open is that the NYSE only has 3000 stocks approximately. When you look at TISS-NYSE at the open you will see that on average there are about 600 symbols that have traded in the premarket by the 9:30 AM US Eastern time open.

When you calculate the difference between the number of stocks up minus the number of stocks down, how is it you end up with a 1700 calculation? You cannot. This is just simply flatly wrong. Not only is it wrong it is just simply wildly off. You should not even be paying attention to that number at all. Either there is some basis of what they are coming up with, which we do not know what the basis of that is, or it is just simply just nonsense and illegitimate.



So in the end, we have proven the others are wrong and what Sierra Chart is providing is an accurate stable calculation that you should trust.
