A new record - 62 trades this year. The biggest jump was in pre-auction trades, going from 10 last year to 21 this year.

Disclaimer: Several trades involved transfer of FA $'s (not noted here) and, of course, context matters. Regardless, it's nice to have a permanent record.

Note: I stopped tracking this stuff in 2018.
