Not having the issue and volume data for the indexes in 
realtime is like flying 2/3 blind.  Price, issues, volume.  Like 
on the attached chart the raw up volume and down volume tells a lot about what 
is going on behind price movement and can be used to decide if you want to be 
long or short, i.e. is the market environment suitable.  Even the # of 
shares per minute tells something about turnover.  Like on last Thursday 
when price had a narrow range day, the shares per minute was way above the usual 
baseline level of 1.5 to 2 million shares per minute during the NY lunch 
period(chart is in Pacific Time).  That Thursday told me lots of stock was 
being distributed after the huge runup on Wednesday.  Since then net volume 
has been negative or flat.  Flat net volume produces choppy trendless 
markets.
In Equivolume charting per Richard Arms, that Thursday would 
have been a short height box(price) and a very wide box(volume), i.e. a topping 
equivolume box and could have been looked at as a setup for a short on 
Friday.

  Bob,Same thing happened to me - Getting 
  shut down on New Years.  It took them two days to get it all right.  
  It seem they enable it the box - supposedly to what you are paying for, and 
  then you have to call back and tell them it is not all working .  They 
  usually get it right the second time.  The gripe I have is they 
  do not send out transaction volume for each tick in the electronic futures 
  markets.  Example SP mini.  They strongly stated it was not coming 
  from the CME.  I ended up speaking with a friend who has BMI and they had 
  it, then I spoke with the CME data vendor support person and she sated they 
  send it.  Finally after this and three more calls to DTN, they got to 
  their 'market data analyst' (?) and  they used a Reuters screen and 
  confirmed it was there.  They are 'looking into what is wrong.  Don 
  estimated fix date.They have good data and lots of it, once they get 
  things right.Just my two cents.JohnAt 03:20 PM

        I hope they soon get the message of what subscribers need.  
        Cancelling subscriptions and returning hardware is the best way to do 
        it.  Over the last year prior to subscribing and times afterwards I 
        have had both assurances and denials about this issue from their sales 
        and tech people.  The holdups were decimalization, then the new 
        satellite, then building their own tickerplant.  Now what is the 
        reason for the holdup?  Its not on their agenda from my last call a 
        week ago.

          Suggestion:  whatever feed you are using, especially DTN 
          satellite, then on 
          your next monthly payment and all future ones, take a moment to do 
          a write 
          in feedback/request expressing displeasure about the lack of 
          individual 
          breadth symbols so that the Omega Global Server can acquire the 
          data.  State 
          that renewal of the subscription may be dependant on DTN's 
          inclination 
          towards listening and responding to subscribers' requests.  
          There is 
          absolutely no acceptable reason why any data feed does not have 
          this data.
