In addition, the latest figures are a rise of 54 percent year-over-year compared to $89.4 billion November 2016.

In connection with the increased volatility of the British pound, as a breakthrough over the Brexit process could be months away, as well as uncertainty about the Fed’s tightening cycle, trading on GBP/USD and EUR/USD instruments enjoyed far greater popularity among Alpari’s clients in the previous month. Specifically, the turnover of those pairings ticked up by 24 percent and 20 percent, respectively, in November 2017.

The renewed rebound off August’s lower volumes highlights the fact that the broker has been able to capitalise on the healthy bouts of volatility that have been rocking financial markets.
