2016 Peak

In addition, Novemberโ€™s strong performance happened just three months after its 2016 low of $12.4 billion in volumes, FXSpotStreamโ€™s largest volume disparity in over a year.

With volatility spiking in early November and in the weeks that followed, volumes were also much higher over a YoY basis, largely due to the absence of a US election in November 2015 โ€“ this was quantified as a growth of 69.1% YoY from November 2015 in terms of ADV.
