DetailsISEE Select Data
The ISEE Select XML Feed uses proprietary trade data for options that trade at the ISE, and the put/call data is generally used to determine bullish/bearish market activity in the underlying security. An example of a use of this data is our put/call widget displayed on this page that shows the ‘Top 3 Bullish/Bearish’ securities.
Data Format
ISEE Select XML Feed includes the following fields of data for each underlying security:
There are end-of-day historical values available as a .csv file going back to January 3, 2006. The update interval was decreased from every 20 minutes to every 10 minutes on January 30, 2008. Therefore the historical data prior to January 30, 2008 is only available in 20-minute increments.

FAQs
ISEE Select XML Feed allows subscribers to pull updated ISEE Select values for nearly all securities that trade options on the ISE, from a central server. Previously, intra-day ISEE Select values were only available by accessing five symbols at a time through a browser application.
ISEE Select XML Feed uses the same calculation methodology as our well-respected ISE Sentiment Index (ISEE). Unlike traditional put/call ratios, ISEE Select is based on opening long customer transactions only. Trades by market makers and firms are excluded as these tend to skew sentiment value. As a result, ISEE Select ’s sentiment index calculation provides a more accurate reflection of true investor sentiment. For more details on our calculation methodology, please click on “Details” tab on www.ise.com/sentiment.
This is not a real-time feed. The intra-day values are updated every 10 minutes. The approximate times that the new values can be retrieved: 3, 13, 23, 33, 43 and 53 minutes after the hour. Subscribers should request or pull an update every 10 minutes.
Yes, all subsequent intra-day calculations use the cumulative number of trades for all calls and all puts to open.
Based on our unique formula for calculating sentiment, a very low sentiment value indicates more opening long put positions are being established and a very high sentiment value indicates more opening long call positions are being established. Long positions of call options to open are generally viewed as a bullish transaction and long positions of put options are generally viewed as a bearish transaction. Therefore, a higher ISEE value represents more bullish sentiment for the underlying security and a lower ISEE value represents a more bearish sentiment for the underlying security.
The ISEE Index value is a single value calculated on hundreds of securities and large trades of individual securities are smoothed out due to the sheer number of securities included in the calculation. For example, when the ISEE Index 52-week high is 212 and the 52-week low is 51. Calculations on individual securities have a much greater range of values, i.e. for a well-known technology company the 52-week high is 21,009 and the 52-week low is 22. The higher value represents more opening long call buying.
Historical values for most securities go back to January 3, 2006.
