Author	Topic: SECOND front month contract volumes for Cocoa not matching Bloomberg Volumes (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
sanjayqdt -Interested User- Posts: 2 Joined: Feb 5, 2023 Smithers!	Posted: Feb 5, 2023 01:36 PM Msg. 1 of 4 I pulled the hourly prints for the second front month contract for ICE US Cocoa Futures (CC*2 and, currently, the May 23 expiry) from the getHistory API. I noticed that the volume for daily traded contracts is different from what I see on my Bloomberg terminal. If I sum up the hourly volumes traded, I come to ~12,000 contracts traded on Feb 1 (Wednesday) and if I compare this to Bloomberg, I see ~23,000 contracts traded. I don't understand why these volumes would be different when the prices seem to match?

You can verify this by using the IQFeed Time & Sales app (found in the IQFeed Applications folder on your desktop). Perhaps on your data pull you aren't counting the implied trades.

Or are you using the modern TCP/IP history requests, like HIT or HID? Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist
