Summary
Traded Value represents the total monetary value of all shares traded during a session. It combines the number of shares traded with the price at which they traded.
This metric shows how much capital was exchanged in a security.
Why it matters
Traded Value can provide a more complete view of market activity than volume alone. A share with a high price may have lower volume but still represent significant trading value.
Investors use traded value to identify securities attracting meaningful capital flows.
How to Calculate
Traded Value = Number of Shares Traded × Average Trading Price
How to read it
Higher traded value generally indicates stronger market participation. However, it does not show whether investors were mainly buying or selling.
It should be reviewed together with price movement, volume, and number of trades.
