We present results about financial market observables, specifically returns and traded volumes. They are obtained within the current nonextensive statistical mechanical framework based on the entropy <InlineEquation ID="Equ1"> <EquationSource Format="TEX">$S_{q}=k\frac{1-\sum_{i=1}^{W} p_{i} ^{q}}{1-q}\, (q\in \Re) \left(S_{1} \equiv...</equationsource></inlineequation>

In this article we study the dependence degree of the traded volume of the Dow Jones 30 constituent equities by using a nonextensive generalised form of the Kullback-Leibler information measure. Our results show a slow decay of the dependence degree as a function of the lag. This feature is...
