Good Aggression Frequency to have?

What should I be aiming for with my AFq (Aggression Frequency)? I just got poker tracker for the first time and have read various articles on the stats, but I can't find any on AFq.

Around 3 - 5 is fairly normal for a solid TAG game. Having said that, poker isnt really a game where you aim for certain stats. If you start blindly firing at pots to bring your aggression up, or blindly calling when you would normally raise to bring it down it will only hurt your game. Stats which are different to normal stats are an indicator that there may be a problem with your game. But there is more than one way to beat this game, and the optimum will vary depending on your specific table/opponents. If your aggression is noticably low then think about spots where it would perhaps be more profitable to be more aggressive, but dont just go betting at everything because it will fix your numbers.

The same goes for any stat. It is far more important to understand the concepts behind why you should make each individual play than it is to fit your numbers to a standard profile.

Sorry, I meant Aggression Frequency (which goes from 0-100) not Aggression Factor

I believe the two are connected.

Aggression Factor is (number of times bet or raised)/(number of times called).

Aggression Frequency is (number of times bet or raised)/(number of times bet, raised or called).

So, if we use 3-5 Pelion mentioned we get 3:1 or 5:1, for sake of simplicity we'll use 4:1 which puts Aggression Frequency at 80%. That being said use of Aggression Factor is better as it shows aggressiveness much better.

I think aggression frequency also includes folds, so the number should be below 50%. Its not a stat I use much though.

the average tag around 30% i think
