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

my D8080 was not receiving data after New Years, something about an enabling
code. <FONT

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.
