LiquidityFinder - Bhargav DharapBruce Markets, which operates the overnight U.S. equities trading venue Bruce ATS, has reported that monthly average traded notional per session reached $502M in March 2026, reflecting a 66% average monthly growth rate since October 2025.
The platform launched in March 2025 and has since expanded its share of the overnight U.S. equities market across both traded notional and overall volume. Since the start of 2026, Bruce ATS has nearly doubled its share of both notional traded and overall volume in the overnight session.
Session averages show the scale of that expansion. Monthly average traded notional climbed from $804K in July 2025 to $502M in March 2026. Average traded shares per session rose from 24,200 to 10.1 million over the same period, whilst executions per session grew from 31.1 to 118,300. Average traded symbols per session reached 1,837 in March 2026, up from 3.9 in July 2025.
On the orders side, average ordered notional per session stood at $1.3T in March 2026, with orders averaging 35.1 million per session and ordered symbols averaging 7,400. The platform finished March 2026 with a total of 4,451 unique symbols traded across the month.
The broader overnight market has also seen rising activity, with total overnight trading volume nearly doubling over the past year. The company attributes this in part to increased global participation, a continuous news cycle and renewed activity from international markets including South Korea.
