Reading the data

• A volume ratio compares reported market volume with the available recent average
• A daily average does not account for the time elapsed during the current trading day
• Broker names can differ from provider symbols; choose the matching instrument
• Imported position quantities are not market volume measurements
• Personal volume-versus-outcome analysis is unavailable without matching historical observations
• Volume indicators alone do not establish execution quality or expected returns
