The average daily volume on equity index derivatives was down at 201,379 contracts (-39% compared with October 2014), and the average daily volume on individual equity derivatives was down at 233,314 contracts (-20% compared with October 2014). As a reminder the derivatives’ activity of October 2014 was exceptionally high due to volatile market conditions. The open interest on individual equity derivatives increased by +9.3% compared to the previous month thus exceeding 14 million contracts at the end of October 2015.
In October 2015, the average daily volume on commodities derivatives decreased by -14% when compared to October 2014, with an average daily volume of 57,163 contracts. The October price range for milling wheat remained stable and the change of the expiry cycle implemented in September continued to impact volume seasonality on this contract.
