So maybe people who make frequent trades are doing it between cryptocurrencies, which makes sense, because if you're day-trading cryptocurrencies it makes sense to trade for other cryptocurrencies, as that avoids regulation. But we don't have any data about what percentage of users are day-traders. If anything, the fact that Eth/BTC trades are only the percentages they are on that chart indicates that this isn't the case.
And incidentally, people who make frequent trades are the ones least likely to pull their money out of the exchange to somewhere safe, because it's going to be the biggest PITA for them, since they'd have to do it so often.
