January once again confirmed the key role of gold in shaping trading success. Strong volatility in precious metals, particularly XAUUSD, created favourable conditions for both active traders and introducing partners, with gold-centric strategies dominating the monthly rankings.
Top 3 Traders of January
The leading position among NordFX traders in January was secured by an account from East Asia, No. 1833xxx, which generated a profit of USD 36,708.48. Trading activity on this account was almost entirely concentrated on XAUUSD, allowing the trader to capitalise fully on sharp price movements in gold.
Second place also went to a trader from East Asia, account No. 1861xxx, who closed the month with a profit of USD 29,315.65. The trading strategy was similarly focused, with the majority of transactions executed on XAUUSD, reflecting a consistent and disciplined approach to gold trading.
Rounding out the top three is another representative of East Asia, account No. 1871xxx, who earned USD 11,916.51 in January. All key trades on this account were conducted on XAUUSD, once again highlighting gold as the primary profit-generating instrument of the month.
Top 3 IB Partners of January
Among NordFX’s introducing partners, January’s highest commission was accrued by a partner from South Asia, account No. 1576xxx. Total partner commission reached USD 8,278, with approximately 99% of trading volume generated through operations in XAUUSD, underlining the strong interest of referred clients in gold trading.
Second place belongs to a partner from East Asia, account No. 1259xxx, who received USD 4,904 in commission. Trading activity on referred accounts was more diversified, with the main instruments being USDJPY, XAUUSD, and BTCUSD, combining classic forex, precious metals, and crypto exposure.
The top three is completed by another partner from East Asia, account No. 2323xxx, whose January commission totalled USD 4,471. Around 90% of trading volume was generated through XAUUSD, with the remaining activity focused on XAGUSD, confirming continued interest in precious metals across partner-driven trading flows.
Looking Ahead
January’s results clearly demonstrate that gold remains one of the most effective instruments for both active traders and IB partners during periods of heightened market volatility. As global macroeconomic uncertainty persists, precious metals continue to attract attention as both a speculative and strategic asset, offering substantial opportunities for disciplined market participants.
NordFX congratulates all top traders and partners on their outstanding performance and wishes continued success in the months ahead.
