Yesterday was the ninth consecutive trading day of volume growth for the ICE Millions FX contracts. In the first two weeks of trading, ICE Millions traded over $3 billion U.S. dollars in notional value. On November 6, ICE Futures U.S. launched the suite of ICE Millions futures. The contracts are ten times the notional value of the existing suite of ICE FX futures and options contracts. Covering a dozen currency cross rates, the ICE Millions bring price and transactional efficiencies to the FX marketplace.
