Frequently asked questions
What is swap?
Overnight interest charged/credited on forex positions held past daily rollover. Based on the difference between the two currencies' interest rates.
Can swap be positive?
Yes — carry trades profit from positive swap. Long a high-rate currency (e.g. USD when Fed was at 5.5%) vs low-rate (e.g. JPY at 0%) earns daily rollover.
Why triple swap on Wednesday?
Spot forex settles T+2. A Wednesday position "rolls" into Friday → Monday settlement, covering 3 days. Brokers charge Wednesday accordingly.
Swap-free accounts?
Offered as "Islamic accounts" for Shariah-compliant trading. Usually come with slightly wider spreads or monthly admin fees to offset.
