I've been looking for some stats on which the most actively traded (i.e. highest volume) FX Futures are and came across this: https://www.cmegroup.com/daily_bulletin/monthly_volume/Web_Volume_Comparison_CME.pdf

It seems that most of the big FX Futures have had quite a large reduction of volume traded vs last year (page 3 bottom half).
Euro, Yen, Aussie all down 20-30% (electronic trading).

Is there any particular reason for this and should we expect it to continue?

Maybe a substantial number of traders are worried that regulatory changes and sabre-rattling on foreign trade with U.S. will cause less-manageable volatility, and they're avoiding altogether or shifting their volume to Asian exchanges? Just useless speculation...
