Are you using the EL reserved word Volume, and are you using 
intraday data?

Volume doesn't work for intraday.  Apparently TRAD decided volume 
was only reported at the end of the day, so it didn't make sense 
to use it on intraday data.  (So why does it "sorta" work?  Go 
ask TRAD.)

Look at the Volume *indicator*.  You'll see that it uses Volume 
for daily data & above, but it uses Upticks + Downticks for 
intraday data.
