Hi, just a short question about the volume / volume indicator: the volume that we see, is this only the volume traded on dukascopy or worldwide volume? |

It seems to be "worldwide volume" in your terminology. |

When I switch between the "ask" or "bid" price menu on the charts it shows different values on volume indicator. So what is this really? Deals within Dukascopy, SWFX, Hotspot+LAVA+Currenex+..................., something else ? Thanks |

It is a volume of deals (contracts,millions) OFFERED on bid or ask price by our counterparties. For example: Bank#1 places OFFER 50 MIO EUR/USD at 1.3401 Bank#2 places BID 13.6 MIO EUR/USD at 1.3402 A client places OFFER 5 MIO EUR/USD at 1.34012 .. etc. Thus our common volume EUR/USD 55 MIO SELL / 13.6 MIO BUY |

Hi support, I have some further questions about Dukascopy volume , please help us to understand it better. Regarding your previous post: ------------------ It is a volume of deals (contracts, millions) OFFERED on bid or ask price by our counterparties. For example: Bank#1 places OFFER 50 MIO EUR/USD at 1.3401 Bank#2 places BID 13.6 MIO EUR/USD at 1.3402 A client places OFFER 5 MIO EUR/USD at 1.34012 .. etc. Thus our common volume EUR/USD 55 MIO SELL / 13.6 MIO BUY ------------------ 1. Does this volume include only limit orders like “Place Bid”, ”Place Offer” or orders at Market price (instant orders) too ? 2. Let's say we have a 1 min candle with span(high to low) 10 pips with 100 Mil. Bid Volume bar… - does this mean 100 Mil. placed offers on BID ( inside and outside this 10 pips range) for a period of 1 min. OR volume offered on Bid price in the range of 10 pips (in our case 100 Mil. for 1 min.)? 3. If a bank places now an offer 50 pips away from the current price – will it be included in the current volume? 4. If a bank places an offer for 100 Mil but only the half of it is FILLED (50 Mil.) and price goes back away… what sum will be included in the volume – 100 or 50 Mil.? 5. If orders at Market price (instant orders) within SWFX are not included in the volume, can we see somewhere? Thanks in advance |

1. This volume includes our counter-parties and our internal clients BIDs and OFFERs only. 2. 1 Min candle contains all ticks best BIDs and OFFERs within 1 minute range. 3. Yes, it will. It will be included in Total volume. In the platform in Market Depth table, only the 10 best BIDs \ OFFERs are displayed. 4. 50 MIO 5. No, you cannot. |
