It is certainly looking like the first quarter of 2026 was one to remember for a number of CFD brokers.

Joining our earlier reports that Hantec Markets and Capital.com had each achieved record client trading volumes topping $1 trillion in Q1, a number of other brokers are releasing similar eye-popping results, as a “perfect storm” of volatility across commodities (first Gold and Silver, later Oil), equities and FX rates kept retail traders at their screens and active throughout the first three months of 2026.

TMGM

Australia based TMGM issued a statement today that it recorded total trading volume of approximately USD $3 trillion (!!) in just one month, March 2026, marking the highest monthly trading volume in the company’s history. TMGM stated that trading activity was primarily concentrated in gold CFDs (XAUUSD), which accounted for approximately 80% of total client activity, making it the dominant driver of overall performance.

Alongside gold CFDs, TMGM observed continued activity across other  CFD instruments, including major equity indices such as the Nasdaq (NAS100) and digital assets CFDs such as Bitcoin (BTCUSD). While contributing a smaller share of total volume, these instruments remained actively traded, reflecting broader engagement across multiple markets.

TMGM is an Australia ASIC licensed broker, and also operates offshore entities under the same brand domiciled in Kenya, Vanuatu and in Mauritius. The group focuses mainly on the Chinese-speaking client market, but has been actively expanding lately into Africa and the LATAM market. TMGM is run from Sydney led by CEO Lee Yu.

ACCM

Another broker which is also ASIC licensed, ACCM (website accmfx.com), is reporting that its Q1 volumes hit $2.14 trillion in Q1 2026. ACCM said that March was driven by strong gold demand, with metals dominating activity. The platform saw 288,000 active traders, while continued expansion in Vietnam strengthens regional presence and long-term growth.

While various brokers may tally volumes differently such that it is difficult to compare each of these figures to one another, it is clear that a number of brokers did quite well in Q1, at least as far as client activity goes.
