by Richard Hills, big xyt

big xyt confirms record equity turnover and changing behaviours during Q1 2020.

Recent market volatility has created a domino effect of changing market behaviours as investors struggle to understand changing liquidity patterns. big xyt has received an increasing number of requests from the community for guidance on market quality as the exceptional trading conditions persist. As a result of these enquiries, additional content is being added to the unique Liquidity Cockpit which provides a consolidated view of the European Equity Market landscape.

In response to these requests, big xyt has leveraged the Liquidity Cockpit API and combined the resulting analysis with the commentary of our newly arrived market veteran Richard Hills to produce a Quarterly review of Equity Market Microstructure.
