Hello Ninj4Man,

Here is an excerpt from the help guide section describing the Volume indicator method, VOL . This in turn quotes the publicly available site marketinout.com .

Description
Volume is simply the number of shares (or contracts) traded during a specified time frame (e.g., hour, day, week, month, etc). The analysis of volume is a basic yet very important element of technical analysis. Volume provides clues as to the intensity of a given price move.
