We are very well aware of the lower volumes with NASDAQ TotalView as compared to the consolidated tape. In our initial analysis of NASDAQ TotalView data, the volumes for NASDAQ stocks were actually higher than the consolidated tape volumes. Later when we deployed the feed, the volumes were lower and we were not really sure why this was the case. We had thought we made a mistake with our initial analysis. This past week while analyzing the NASDAQ ITCH processing code, we discovered the reason for the lower volumes. The reason has to do with a TCP connection that we use to NASDAQ and the fact that we have to filter out prior data from the current connection time in the event of a reconnection during the trading day. Since NASDAQ re-transmits all of the data since the beginning of the day on a connection. This filtering code resulted in certain categories of messages being filtered. This resulted in lower volumes. This is resolved and you will see higher volumes as of this upcoming Tuesday July 5. This does not solve the problem with lower volumes for NYSE and AMEX stocks. However, the volumes of all symbols will become higher. 2.1. To make sure you have the most complete volume data in the NASDAQ TotalView charts as of this time, follow the below procedure: Re-download all the data in the chart by going to the chart and selecting "Edit >> Delete All Data and Download". You just need to do this once per symbol and not for each chart.
3. Not good: We are not permitted to provide market depth data from the NASDAQ TotalView data feed if you are just accessing the delayed data only. You must pay for the real-time data. If you had access to this before this was due to a technical implementation problem. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
