What is Swap Trading & How Does It Work?

Swaps – or forex rollover charges – are interest payments that apply when you hold a forex or CFD position open overnight. In forex trading, swaps are based on the difference between the rates of the two currencies you trade.

You can earn or pay swaps depending on the direction of your trade and market conditions. If you hold a currency with a higher interest rate against one with a lower rate, you may profit. Conversely, if the currency you hold has a lower interest rate, you may incur a fee.

Swap Explained

When you keep a position open past midnight (00:00 server time), there's a small overnight fee (or you might earn) called a swap. What you pay (or get) depends on whether you're long or short, which market you're trading, and the swap rate for that product.

How it's calculated:

((Open Price × (Lot Size × Contract Size) × Swap %) / 100) ÷ 360

All the details (trade size, contract, rate) are visible in MT5 so you can quickly see what your swap will be.
