In addition to the symbols you mentioned there are the following, all with Up, Down,
Unchanged as you explained:
@ICC - CBOE Call Issues
@IPC - CBOE Put Issues
@DCC - CBOE Call $ Volume
@DPC - CBOE Put $ Volume
@TCC - CBOE Call Ticks
@TPC - CBOE Put Ticks
For Amex the symbols end with A instead of C.
For Pacific the symbols end with P instead of C.
For Philadelphia the symbols end with X instead of C.
