As global traders increasingly use options as a key tool in their trading strategies, our new analytics provide easy access to one definitive data source, so they can trade with confidence. Calculated directly from our highly liquid global markets, this is the latest example of how our data can help clients achieve their goals.

The launch coincides with record growth in options trading activity at CME Group, which recorded an annual average daily volume of 5.5 million contracts in 2024. This figure increased to 5.6 million ADV during the first half of 2025, reflecting sustained demand for options-based trading strategies.
The enhanced data offering addresses growing institutional requirements for sophisticated volatility analysis tools as market participants increasingly incorporate options into broader trading and risk management frameworks.
CME Group's analytics are calculated from data generated by the exchange's liquid global markets, providing participants with standardised metrics for options valuation and risk assessment across multiple asset classes including equity indices, commodities, currencies, and interest rates.
