Description

Trade Frequency measures the number of trades executed over a given time interval. It reveals market activity intensity and the presence of algorithmic trading.

Details

Trade frequency spikes — especially during high volatility — often indicate a surge in automated activity (e.g., bots). Monitoring this helps assess market responsiveness and behavioral shifts. High-frequency bursts with low trade size typically point to retail or algorithmic trading activity.
