Hm, you are correct. BMI does have the Vol numbers on the Small contract. I think perhaps I knew that but never really incorporated Volume on the Small as an indicator. Scott and a few others have mentioned it ... I think the way my set up is, I found it difficult to include another chart on the screens.

There does not appear to be an O.I. setting for the SP9H Chart on PC Quote, so I imagine there isn't one for the ES9H either.

The machine I normally run PC Quote on is running other stuff at the moment, without it I do not know what PC Quote uses as a symbol for ES9H. This other machine does not have the mini on any of the pages. But I imagine that it should be the same as the SP9H and there aren't Volume figures on that either. Seems as if there should be, shouldn't there? But I gather it is not transmitted because it would come across as Ticks, and not Size. I think perhaps that regardless of whether the trade is for 100 or 1 PC Quote looks at it as One Tick, end of story.

I was using several ES9H contracts to attempt to trade positionally as well, in an effort to segregate that type of trade from the Day trade where I use the SP9H. The only major annoyance is the rip on commission. I suppose if you have the trends knocked then it matters little.

Unfortunately the trend of late has been difficult for me to get a grip on.

EDIT I just fired up PC Quote on the usual machine, the E-Mini symbol is /ESH9G, for whatever reason. But no, the charts do not have any O.I. input either and the Vol is always zero.

Thanks for the suggestions though.
