  Exness, a global forex and CFDs broker, published key trading metrics for August, showing a correction in monthly trading volume from the peak the platform had achieved in July. According to the latest numbers, the total trading volume for the broker came in at $879.4 billion for the month.

  This figure is almost 9.8 percent lower than the July peak, but it is still the third-best monthly volume reported by the broker in its operating history. The monthly correction mostly resulted from the summer vacationing traders, which has become a cyclical trend in the trading industry.

  The broker still maintains the uptrend in its demand as, on a yearly basis, the monthly trading volume gained nearly 47 percent. The sharp recovery in volume started last May and continued as the broker is now poised to break the $1 trillion mark.

  Despite the correction, the global brokerage reported a significant jump in onboarding new traders. It added 15,174 new traders in August alone, which is among the highest single month addition by Exness, and ended the month with a total of 224,544 traders.

  Meanwhile, the broker is expanding its geographical reach as well and has obtained a South African FSCA license earlier this year. Furthermore, it became a member of the Financial Commission that will provide fund protection of up to €20,000 to each Exness client.
