Hi, using volume study on daily PVOL-NYSE, yesterday Aug 15 total vol was 3319.10M and today Aug 16 shows just 943.34M, that's like one-third less. While at http://online.wsj.com/mdc/public/page/2_3021-tradingdiary2.html the NYSE total volume was higher today. I am talking relative vol from wsj.com and yours from yesterday and today, I know the raw number can differ but there is no way todays total PVOL-NYSE is one-third of yesterday like you are showing. Please give the explanation for this problem and how you will fix it. Thank you!

You definitely cannot measure volume with that symbol in the way that you are describing by looking at a Daily chart and the current day. It will not give you a consistent accurate value.

To determine the total volume in a day, the appropriate symbol to use is this one:

Your image is 10mins, for Aug 16 end of day is 5.2M yet when I do same symbol as Historical Chart, the end of day for Aug 16 is 4.9M, why is the 10mins Intraday so different from the Historical ?? My goal is a daily end of day NYSE vol for last 500 days, what is the best and accurate way?
