October at a Glance
October marked another milestone for us at D Prime, as we achieved a record-breaking trading volume and strengthened our position as a trusted partner for traders worldwide. The surge reflected both the fast-paced momentum of the markets and the growing confidence our clients place in our platform.
In October 2025, we recorded a total trading volume of USD 296.05 billion, a 54.75% increase from September, while our average daily volume (ADV) reached USD 9.55 billion, up 49.58% month on month.
This exceptional growth was driven by heightened geopolitical tensions, shifting expectations around central bank policies, and the extraordinary volatility that defined the gold market. These factors combined to create valuable opportunities for active traders.

At the same time, tensions in the Middle East and speculation over future Federal Reserve rate cuts added to overall volatility.
Throughout the month, gold remained the standout performer. Prices surged past USD 4,000 per ounce, reached a historic high near USD 4,400, and ended the month around USD 4,023. This dramatic movement made XAU/USD the most actively traded product, with its trading volume increasing by USD 103.5 billion compared to September.
