Abstract

Stock trading volume, as a key indicator reflecting market trading activity, is widely used in market trend analysis and investment strategy formulation. In recent years, many scholars have conducted research on it, and the existing methods mainly include parameter statistics and machine learning algorithms. This article applies nonparametric statistical methods such as kernel density estimation and the single sample Kolmogorov- Smirnov (KS) test to analyze the daily hourly trading volume of A-shares. It is found that the Johnson-U distribution has the best fit to the data, which is of great significance for understanding and analyzing the trading behavior of the stock market.
