The Total Outstanding consists of shares that are owned and those that make up the Float. The Float are those shares in the public market and not subject to sales restriction.
Hence all Supply demand issues of a given days trade happen against the float. ie The Float increases on days Insider sales pass SEC regs and become public shares, or specific other events happen.

Insider shares held are in the total Outstanding until sold into the market.( directors & officers )

Shares which are pending conversion from debentures warrants or options are not yet in the float, once they are converted they become part of the float & part of the Total Outstanding.

Shares help by Institutions Are in the Float.

The Float is a Relative constant, hence our ability to measure supply and demand is directly tied to market action against the float.
