That's interesting, I guess it boils down to: what does one
consider "correct" volume?
For my particular purpose I usually prefer NOT-split-adjusted prices
so have removed AdjClose a long time ago and am perfectly happy with
what I consider correct volume: the actual number of shares traded no
matter the price or the splits (so please let AQ keep it that way :)
Then again, I am no frequent user of volume analysis so others may
think different.
Dave, perhaps you missed Tomasz's reply to your earlier post, that
confirms what you observe. I guess only Tomasz could adjust how
AdjClose affects the various fields during AQ import. Apparently it
should no longer divide Volume by the split factor?
