Hello,

Go to your aqh.format file (it is in "formats" subdir), edit it with Notepad and
add
$VOLFACTOR 0.001

Then re-download your data. 

Best regards,

  Subject: [amibroker] Re: Index Volume Issue - Yahoo Data


  This is particularly peculiar, though.  A screenshot is shown at 
http://members.cox.net/~ramdom2/indexvol.bmp . What also confuses me is that 
the yahoo page showing the historical price info for this symbol has what seem 
to be accurate volumes but shown in amibroker is this mess of equal volume days 
for the most part and the exact number for the volume is repeated not only in 
^GSPC but also ^IXIC,^RUT, and ^DJI.  There are no volumes greater than this 
number almost like whatever actually culls the data cannot handle numbers 
larger than this number.  Anyone with a similar problem?
