Because monthly activity levels can fluctuate considerably in new and growing markets, the company continues to guide investors to assess trading activity growth over a longer horizon, such as six months. From May through October, 2026, trading volume totalled 2,943,439 contracts, compared with 556,437 from November, 2025, through April, 2026. Across the same periods, average daily open interest more than doubled, from 385 to 809 contracts. On a year-over-year basis, ADV rose from 1,446 contracts per day in October, 2025, to 35,813 in October, 2026.

"It has been another record month. We'll have stronger months and weaker months, but the liquidity we have developed continues to attract global commercial trading firms," said Joe Raia, president of Abaxx Exchange, "I've seen and done this before. Every month that we create the conditions for commercials to trade, we'll see more engagement, more on-boarding and ultimately more commercial trading."
