im trying to calculate the monthly Trade Volume (USDT) and Gas Fees (in BNB) of a set of contract addresses ( ~10 addresses) for the last two months of October and November 2021

im new to graphql and not sure how to query - im thinking something like the query below (using 2 eg addresses) , but there are some things i am unsure about:

- do i put the contract addresses into “TxSender”, “TxTo” , or both? where do i specify all the ~10 contract addresses ?
- how do I aggregate (think GROUP BY in SQL terms) the Gas Fees and Trade Volume at the month level ?

thank you!

```auto
query ($network: EthereumNetwork!, $dateFormat: String!, $from: ISO8601DateTime, $till: ISO8601DateTime) {
  ethereum(network: $network) {
    transactions(options: {asc: "date.date"}, date: {since: $from, till: $till}) {
      date: date {
        date(format: $dateFormat)
      }
      txs: count
      dau: count(uniq: senders)
      gasValue(
        txSender: {in: ["0x491E59c255C790D4e3a53CEC2632524088f1aaA4", "0xd09649117110AA7a02dd5fB670219F385c43f88a"]}
      )
    }
  }
}

```

Use query like below

```auto
{
  ethereum(network: bsc) {
    dexTrades(
      date: {since: "2021-12-01", till: "2021-11-30"}
      smartContractAddress: {is: "0x491E59c255C790D4e3a53CEC2632524088f1aaA4"}
    ) {
      date: date {
        date(format: "%Y-%m")
      }
      trades: countBigInt
      tradeVolume: tradeAmount(in: USDT)
      gasValueVol: gasValue(calculate: sum)
    }
  }
}

```

For Ethereum what units are the gas values quoted in?  
The results are for a liquidity pair address. What counts as a trade here? eg. a swap, a mint, a burn. And what does the volume represent in the case for this liquidity pool. Volume swapped?

“date”: {  
“date”: “2020-08”  
},  
“trades”: “3”,  
“tradeVolume”: 39.416872327387736,  
“gasValueVol”: 0.02882401676034048  
},

It depends on what you are trying to query.
