Now the Shark Team can answer the perennial question: “How's volume today?” Most investors are aware of the importance of volume in the market, but until now, there hasn't been any convenient way for investors to track volume throughout the day and compare it to what has happened up to that point over the previous five trading sessions. Below is the Shark Team's beta version of our volume chart, which is updated every 20 minutes. In the coming weeks, look for our enhanced chart, which will feature roll-over functionality and user-defined time-frames.

Please Note: The gray bar represents the total number of shares traded on a particular day. The corresponding blue bar will indicate how many shares had traded up to a particular time on each of those days, allowing you to see how today's volume compares to the number of shares traded up to that point on each of the previous days displayed.
