We examine the formation process and statistical properties (including the mean, wriance, and realized value) of the buy side cumulative trading volume, sell side cumulative trading volume and total cumulative volume under continuous double auction mechanism by means of mathematical modeling based on Poisson process of order flows, and do some corresponding numerical simulations and comparative statics on the factors that would influence these three volumes aforementioned. The results indicate that these three volumes are all influenced by the factors including the arrival rate of orders, demands of each order, proportional structure between buy and sell orders, executed probability and time interval we examined.
