Yesterday in Second Life we:
- Spent US$1,768,000 at an exchange rate of L$267.8 to US$1
- Exchanged US$260,000 at an average of US$10,800 per hour.
- Market buys were US$210,000
- Market sales were US$48,000
- Limit-limit buys were US$1,300
- The busiest times were at 2 and 10am, noon, and 3 and 4pm when about US$14,000 was exchanged in each hour.
- The quietest times were at 1am, 7pm and midnight when about US$8,000 was exchanged.
- On WSE US$10,700 of stock changed hand. The WSE1000 was L$1088, up L$17
NOTE: Another very compressed day - the range between the quietest and average trading, and average and busiest trading are both smaller than usual. The exchange was, however, busy. Not quite the busiest day, in fact about 5th busiest since I started taking records, but one of the most evenly busy days I've seen.

The LindeX from the official SL site is showing an exchange rate of $L186 to $1 USD, as opposed to the $L267.8 figure which you show and which I thought the SL site had been showing for a while (and even in-world if you right click+buy land their calculations seem to still be using that $L267 rate).
Wasn't sure why the discrepancy - such as where or how these figures are actually derived.
