Saxo Bank Swimming Against The Tide; Hits $152.5 Billion

Investors and policymakers are looking forward to a state of normalcy and predictability in the global market. But the current brutal pace of change and volatility keeps on swaying.

This is no different case with the latest published Saxo Bank trading metrics. The June 2022 monthly trading volume sank, registering a total volume of $398.8 billion. This reflects a 5.4 percent decline from the previous month’s figure.

However, the phrase rinse and repeat in terms of trading volume in Saxo Bank has a polar effect to cover it. The announced trading demand in the month tremendously rose in comparison to April demand indicating a positive effect in the sector.

This represents a 41 percent rise on a year-over-year basis.

Besides the trading demand rise in the bank, the demand for forex trading also seems to take a positive pace.

The recorded monthly volume with forex instruments was $152.5 billion, compared to $149.6 billion reported in May. This translates to a 2 percent growth from month to month.

 

Even though the trading volume seen in recent quarters has become uneven, June forex trading came the highest since mid-2020. Moreover, the average daily volume also hit $6.9 billion.
