Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (Cboe: CBOE | NASDAQ: CBOE) has reported its trading statistics for May 2020, which notched a healthy gain in both its options and US equities volumes, despite seeing a wavering performance across FX and futures business.

During May 2020, Cboe disclosed a total trading volume for options contracts at 191 million. Year-over-year, this was good for a rise of seven percent from 178 million back in May 2019. However, this figure was down five percent from 201 million contracts in the previous month.

This corresponded to an average daily volume (ADV) of 9.57 million contracts per day, which was almost unchanged from the month prior but was up by 18 percent year-on-year from 8.11 million contracts per day in the same month a year earlier.

Across its futures business, Cboe Global’s total volumes came in at 2.67 million contracts in May 2020, down by 64 percent over a yearly basis from 7.15 million contracts a year back. The figure however marks a decent rise of 14 percent month-on-month when compared with 2.34 million in April 2020. The exchange yielded an average daily volume (ADV) of 134,000 contracts per day, which was lower by two thirds from 342,000 contracts in the previous year.
