JP Morgan Defies All Odds to Dominate Forex with a 10%+ Market Share
According to data presented and published by ForexSchoolOnline, JP Morgan Chase & Co. is the leading firm in forex, holding a 10.78% market share. It is a significant improvement over its previous year’s performance of 9.81%.
It is particularly noteworthy seeing as the second firm, UBS, scored 8.13% only. Interestingly too, JP Morgan had at the start of 2020 predicted low trading liquidity, citing low market volatility.
One of the possible reasons behind its impressive performance could be its implementation of machine learning in trading. In its aforementioned report, the firm had predicted that electronic trading volumes would increase from 74% in 2019 to 84% in 2020.
To harness this potential, it launched an eFX algorithm that seeks to minimize market impact on order placements.

Bank of America comes in a distant second with $306.7 billion while ICBC is third at $290 billion.
