Few Forex brokers can actually boast new records set on a regular basis, especially when it comes to trading turnover. Alpari has recently set a new record in terms of turnover for the 3rd month in a row.
According to the recent press release published by the broking company, in March 2013, Alpari reached the highest monthly turnover since the foundation in 1998.
At the same time, the company’s trading turnover in Q1 2013 exceeded $382bn! This is a 43% increase as compared to Q1 2012.
According to Eugene Olkhovsky, Masterforex-V Academy’s leading experts in financial markets from Canada, Alpari’s turnover in Russia and the CIS exceeded $140bn in March 2013. This is a major achievement as well – the all-time record.
As far as trading instruments are concerned, EURUSD was the currency pair that contributed most of all to the new record. It saw an 8.8bn or 12% increase. GBPUSD is the second biggest contributor: +$7.7bn. EURJPY is number 3 with +$5.4bn.
At the same time, Alpari set another record. It is the amount of active clients. In March 2013, the indicator reached 800 000 active traders.
This is not the first time we see Alpari setting records. In January 2013, Alpari increased its turnover up to $110bn.
