Japanese brokerage group GMO CLICK Securities has just posted its monthly metrics ending in August 2015. The total GMO CLICK volumes reached in August 2015 was ¥1.239 trillion, an increase of 2.43% over the same figure from July 2015.

When looking at the USD equivalent of the total GMO CLICK volumes reached in August, it crossed back above the symbolic $1 trillion mark thanks to the weakening yen.
