Is there more liquidity in the market now

I am noticing less movement in the market now compared to a year or 2 ago. The daily candles are not as long and their retracements over the folloewing day are not reaching as far back (reversals excluded). Would this be due to more liquidity in the market and prices therefore balanced more so?

Yes, volatility has been decreasing last few years (E/U):


But I don’t think that liquidity is the one to blame, could be that nowadays everyone is more cautious plus central bank intervention…

nice chart and good points, makes sense, thanks
