Nasdaq TotalView-ITCH is a proprietary data feed that disseminates full order book depth and last sale data from the Nasdaq stock market (XNAS). It delivers every quote and order at each price level, along with any event that updates the order book after an order is placed, such as trade executions, modifications, or cancellations. Nasdaq is the most active US equity exchange by volume and represented 13.03% of the average daily volume (ADV) as of January 2025.
With its L3 granularity, Nasdaq TotalView-ITCH captures information beyond the L1, top-of-book data available through SIP feeds and enables more accurate modeling of book imbalances, trade directionality, quote lifetimes, and more. This includes explicit trade aggressor side, odd lots, auction imbalance data, and the Net Order Imbalance Indicator (NOII) for the Nasdaq Opening and Closing Crosses and Nasdaq IPO/Halt Cross—the best predictor of Nasdaq opening and closing prices available. Other key advantages of Nasdaq TotalView-ITCH over SIP data include faster real-time dissemination and precise exchange-side timestamping directly from Nasdaq.
Real-time Nasdaq TotalView-ITCH data is included with a Plus or Unlimited subscription through our Databento US Equities service. Historical data is available for usage-based rates or with any subscription. Explore pricing for more details or to upgrade your plan.
