Total ADV reached 125.3 billion, up sharply from August, thanks to renewed market activity and liquidity.
Jeff Ward, the CEO of FxSpotStream
The multibank
FX aggregation services provider for spot foreign exchange trading FXSpotStream
reported a notable increase in monthly volumes for September. The total average
daily volume (ADV) reached $125.3 billion, marking the highest figure in the
past year and representing a substantial jump from August’s levels.
Both spot
and other ADV components contributed to this rise, with the spot ADV coming in
at $82.2 billion and other ADV at 43 billion.
FXSpotStream’s Spot Market
Leads Monthly Growth
FXSpotStream experienced
a marked surge in trading activity, with spot ADV climbing from the previous
month’s $71.2 billion to $82.2 billion in September. This uptick represents a
strong rebound after relatively flat activity over the summer, underscoring
renewed market momentum. Other ADV also rose to $43 billion, the largest
monthly increase across the year.
Compared to
earlier months, September’s total ADV dwarfed prior figures, surpassing the
earlier high of $122 billion set in April. The combined growth from both spot
and other ADV categories signals broad-based strength across FXSpotStream’s
client base.
There is
also a strong increase compared with last year, when in September 2024 the ADV
was just under $102 billion.
FXSpotStream Total ADV (Sep 2024 - Sep 2025)
The results
are consistent with reports from other major institutional players, where FX
trading turnover grew
by an average of 12% in September, reflecting the dollar’s stronger footing
after a period of steep declines.
Meanwhile,
the Bank for International Settlements released its triennial
survey, showing that global FX volumes climbed to record levels, reaching
$9.6 trillion per day.
“As 2025
shapes up to be a record-breaking year for FXSpotStream, with volumes
continuing to rise, we remain steadfast in our commitment to delivering the
best possible service,” commented Jeff Ward, CEO of FXSpotStream.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
