The existence of contemporaneous relationship between volatility and volume is implied by the Mixture Distribution Hypothesis which states that volatility and trading volume are jointly generated by information flow process. In the study realized volatility computed on the basis of high frequency data is used as a measure of return volatility. It is more efficient measure of daily return volatility than commonly used absolute or squared returns.
