Volume

Quantity traded or delivered, typically expressed in barrels, tonnes, or MWh, forming the basis for exposure sizing.

Volume refers to the quantity of a commodity, asset, or security traded over a specific period. It reflects market activity, liquidity, and potential price momentum.

For example, high WTI futures volume suggests active participation, stronger trend confirmation, and greater ease of entering or exiting positions.

Volume analysis is essential for technical trading, risk management, and market assessment. Sudden spikes may indicate new trends or market disruptions.

Understanding volume enables traders and analysts to gauge liquidity, validate price movements, and improve execution in commodities, equities, and derivatives markets.
