IC Markets has recorded its highest ever monthly trading volume, following a surge in trading volume across all asset classes in November.

According to IC Markets the record month is a result of its product diversification, growth into new markets, an increased client retention rate and optimum trading conditions which led to clients taking advantage of high volatility in the markets.

The results follow last year’s unprecedented growth across the global retail trading industry, with IC Markets reporting US$9.32 trillion in trading volume for the year. The trading volumes for November eclipsed the previous high of US$1 trillion achieved in March this year.
