A swap rate, also referred to as rollover, is the interest amount added to or deducted from a trading position for holding it open overnight. Swaps are applied exclusively when positions remain open until the next trading day, specifically at 23:59 server time.
In forex trading, swap rates are calculated based on the overnight interest rate differential between the two currencies in a pair, as well as whether the position is long or short. When a position is held overnight, the trader effectively pays interest on the currency being sold and receives interest on the currency being bought. Consequently, swap rates are influenced by the prevailing interest rates of the respective countries, the direction of the trade (long or short), and current market conditions as determined by Tronex Ltd.
At Tronex Ltd., we apply competitive swap rates by debiting or crediting client accounts for all positions held open after the daily rollover time at 23:59 server time. This rollover time defines the start and end of each trading day. Any positions remaining open at 23:59 server time are subject to rollover.
For example, a position opened at 00:00 server time will not be rolled over until the following day, whereas a position opened at 23:58 server time will incur a rollover at 23:59 server time. Each open position at the rollover cutoff will result in a corresponding credit or debit reflected in your account.
Although there is no market rollover on Saturdays and Sundays when trading is closed, banks continue to calculate interest over the weekend. To account for this, we apply a triple (3-day) swap rate on Wednesdays for forex pairs and metals, and on Fridays for indices, energies, and stocks.
