Enormous* pardon.

I've checked the forum for similar posts and video tutorials haven't been much help.

I am looking at a very illiquid asset with a very slow market, yet the volumes are huge at each given price and in fact are larger than the daily volume reported by the exchange (binance).

I've added a picture. FYI, The number in the orange box is the countdown timer.

The data we are getting has a volume that is 10000x due to how we have to deal with it. Refer to the following:
Cryptocurrency / Bitcoin Data and Trading Services: Notes

You can set the Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Volume/Open Interest Multiplier to .0001, but you will lose some information in the process.

Thanks for your response I was going to actually post this solution, this is actually what I had initially been doing, but I heard that this was just done to improve the readability of the volumes and not for the purpose of correcting them, so I concluded that the un-adjusted volumes were correct until I compared the numbers more closely with the exchange volumes. Anyway thanks.
