the exchange rate volatility with the use of GARCH Model. Results revealed that an inverse and statistical insignificant relationship exist between aggregate trade and exchange rate volatility in Nigeria. Results also revealed that income has a great role to play on trade flow in the country while the exchange rate volatility which is the main variable in the model has a negative effect on the trade flow. The study therefore recommends that monetary authority should ensure transparency in the process
