Historical Data Volume very low

    Yahoo Finance volumes are almost same as shown on Nasdaq.com (https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/stocks/nvda/historical). IBKR volumes are substantially lower, almost half. Why?

    The IBKR volume (1 day, RTH only), and changing to include outside RTH doesn't make much a difference. Can the filtering make such a massive difference on volume?
    Note: IB's historical data feed is filtered for some types of trades which generally occur away from the NBBO such as combos, block trades, and derivatives. For that reason the historical data volume will be lower than an unfiltered historical data feed.

    For NVDA daily volume, Yahoo Finance vs IBKR (last)
