[amibroker] Re: Index Volume Issue - Yahoo Data

This is particularly peculiar, though.  A screenshot is shown at
http://members.cox.net/~ramdom2/indexvol.bmp
<http://members.cox.net/~ramdom2/indexvol.bmp>  . What also confuses me
is that the yahoo page showing the historical price info for this symbol
has what seem to be accurate volumes but shown in amibroker is this mess
of equal volume days for the most part and the exact number for the
volume is repeated not only in ^GSPC but also ^IXIC,^RUT, and ^DJI. 
There are no volumes greater than this number almost like whatever
actually culls the data cannot handle numbers larger than this number. 
Anyone with a similar problem?

never trust its market breadth data outright (adv/dec, adv vol /dec vol,
new highs / new lows, etc.), always compare it with a few other sources
before putting your stamp of approval.
