- Use sqrt to find the distance in pixels it traveled from one frame to the next.
- Multiply by your spatial calibration factor to convert from pixels to centimeters.
- Divide the distance in cm by the frame time.

I have a gesture and want to calculate its speed. I have got its x and y axis points. How can speed profile of a gesture can be claculated using trajectory points??

Something like
distanceInPixels = sqrt(x1 - x2) ^ 2 + (y1 - y2) ^ 2);
distanceInCm = distanceInPixels * cmPerPixel;
speed = distanceInCm / frameTimeInSeconds;
To get the spatial calibration factor, see attached demo.

When you open the videoReader, it is the NumberOfFrame property. See the help for videoReader. It might be 1/30 of a second.
frameTimeInSeconds = 1/30; % For standard US (or 1/29.94).
