Volume

Volume: Volume represents the number of shares or contracts that have been traded in a particular period. In simple words, the volume is the number of shares that changed hands during a given period. Stocks with high volumes are considered more liquid, and liquidity in stocks helps in easier and faster execution of the order. The volume is displayed by histogram and is usually available below the price action on a standard chart.
