SYDNEY, April 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Yet another quarter of record-breaking growth for online trading company IC Markets announced its results for the first quarter of 2021. The retail trading firm reported a surge in trading volume across all asset classes.

According to IC Markets, 2021 sees their 2020 growth continuing, posting trading volumes of $2.84 Trillion for Q1 across all instruments, setting a record for the firm. The results follow last year's unprecedented growth across the global retail trading industry, with IC Markets reporting $9.32 trillion in trading volume for the year surpassing expectations.
