For U.S. equities, there is no single consolidated order book. Instead, multiple venues each maintain their own order books. Because data providers source from different markets, the `bidVolume` and `askVolume` reported at each update come from one specific order book at a time, not an aggregate across all venues.

As a result, these volume fields should not be treated as a proxy for total market liquidity at the top of book. They are informational and not especially representative in fragmented markets like U.S. equities.
