OpenInt - MultiCharts
Open main menu

Returns the open interest of the current bar for tick and volume-based charts, and for time-based charts with resolutions of 24 hours or less: - the volume traded on Down ticks will be returned if Build Volume On is set to Trade Volume - the number of Down ticks in the current bar will be returned if Build Volume On is set to Tick Count

OpenInt is supported for time-based charts with resolutions of 1 day or more.

Please note that most data feeds provide only a limited history of volume and tick data; storing real-time feed data will ensure the availability of historical volume and tick data.
