Difference between activity on the Bid and Activity at the Asked
As the majority of the volume in any liquid exchange market is done by traders who close the transaction at the end of the day. A daily running total of the Asked activity - Bid activity will give you a fair approximation of the long or short bias by the more sophisticated, longer term traders.

Re: Short Selling Volume
Once a month the short interest of each stock is "approx" updated.There really is no way of knowing the exact number of shorted shares,in relation to the stocks float IMO.
A simple example is INTC,which can be looked at for free on yahoo finance.com(click key statistic's on the left hand side) http://finance.yahoo.com/q/ks?s=INTC However the accuracy is not 100% by any means,but at least you can get a general idea of each stocks individual short positions: INTC Share Statistics Average Volume (3 month)3: 67,022,900 Average Volume (10 day)3: 92,162,800 Shares Outstanding5: 5.84B Float: 5.82B % Held by Insiders1: 3.19% % Held by Institutions1: 60.80% Shares Short (as of 25-Sep-07)3: 72.27M Short Ratio (as of 25-Sep-07)3: 1.2 Short % of Float (as of 25-Sep-07)3: 1.20% Shares Short (prior month)3: 74.38M Stephen [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
