What it is

How much of the stock trading happens away from the exchanges: in dark pools or inside brokers that match their clients' orders. About half is normal today. Context only: more or less is not good or bad in itself. Share of US stock volume traded away from the exchanges, 20-session average. Informative only. Part of the theme "Big funds’ bets": How large investors are positioned in futures.

How to read it

It is context: its position against its history is shown, but it carries no colour and does not count in the traffic light.
