Rudex is the Russian Portal for BitShares. The Rudex.BTC market has less volume than Bridge.BTC or Open.BTC; but we are keeping the same report format for comparison purposes. Liquidity is important on markets, but it does not take a ton of orders to make a market, there just need to be enough orders for what you want to do, to enable you to buy and sell.
BitShares has the unique possibility of allowing any two coins to be crossed, in practice it is helpful to migrate towards the more liquid markets. More liquid markets also attract more market makers. People like to be where other people are.

There are lots of factors that go into making of cryptocurrency markets. The DexBot project is an open source market making project that has been helping to build out market liquidity. Rudex also has its own market making bot that is web based.

Both of these bots can support a similar basic market making strategy. Both bots also support other unique strategies. I have used both bots and they both have strengths and weaknesses, which go beyond the scope of this article.
