Summary
Bond Volume represents the total number of bonds traded during a specific trading period. It shows the level of market activity in a bond.
Volume is one of the main indicators of bond liquidity.
Why it matters
Higher volume often indicates stronger investor interest and a more active market. Bonds with higher volume may be easier to buy or sell at market prices.
Lower volume may suggest limited activity and potentially lower liquidity.
How to read it
A rise in volume may indicate increased attention or changing views on the bond. Low volume may mean limited trading interest.
Volume should be reviewed together with traded value, number of trades, bid price, and price movement.
