The Nasdaq Stock Market Inc. announced today that a wide range of its data tools will be made available directly over the Web. Four components (referred to as widgets on the NASDAQ site) make up the initial available offerings. These include the NASDAQ Net Order Imbalance Indicator (NOII), BookViewer, Velocity & Forces, Daily Share Volume widgets. Those wishing to use the services register online and subscribe to the services on an a la carte basis. A non-professional rate of $15 per widget is available to individual investors who sign up and agree to the user license requirements restricting commercial use. With the NOII component users can search for liquidity and predict cross prices before they occur by viewing NASDAQ crossing data (NASDAQ Opening Cross, Closing Cross, IPO Cross, and Halt Cross). The BookViewer widget allows users to view all buy and sell orders for securities listed on NASDAQ, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the American Stock Exchange (Amex). Using the Velocity & Forces service investors can gauge pre-trade interest and market activity in NASDAQ stocks. The Daily Share Volume allows investors to track the market activity surrounding specific stocks and sectors. For more information and to sign up point your browser to www.data.nasdaq.com..
