What is a Swap Rate?

A swap rate is the interest paid or received for holding a position overnight. For currency pairs, interest is paid on the currency sold and earned on the currency bought. Swap rates are influenced by the interbank spread and cross-currency basis.

Rates are quoted per standard lot (1.0). Note: Wednesdays are triple swap days for FX pairs, reflecting weekend market closures.CFDs.

What is a Financing Fee?

A financing fee is the cost of keeping a CFD position open overnight. It gives traders access to leveraged products by paying only an initial margin, with the fee covering the borrowing or lending costs of the underlying asset. Dividend adjustments also apply — long positions receive a positive adjustment, while short positions receive a negative one.

Please note: on Fridays, financing fees are charged at three times the normal rate to account for the weekend.
