Re: [RT] For the folks with VIX interest

They may not be excluding it, but ISE data is all mixed into the other data.
DTN has composite data symbols for specific exchanges as well as what
appears on OPRA.  So if the ISE trades have an exchange identifier attached
to them, then DTN could create a Calculated Index.  Perhaps that is what
they are doing with the other exchanges.  How about encouraging DTN to
create composite symbols for the ISE like they have for the other exchanges.
