## Common Use Cases

### Monitor Token Activity

Use the trades endpoints to monitor buying and selling activity for specific tokens, helping you understand market sentiment and trading patterns.

### Track Trade Volume

Combine the trades count endpoint with the all trades endpoint to calculate trading volumes and analyze market activity over time.

### Filter by Trade Size

Use the `minimumSize` parameter to filter out small trades and focus on significant market movements.

### Historical Analysis

Retrieve historical trade data using pagination parameters to analyze price movements and trading patterns over time.

<Note>
  All endpoints require authentication via JWT token. Ensure you include the `Authorization: Bearer <token>` header with all requests.
