A swap occurs when a position is carried over to the next day during a rollover.
Swaps are calculated based on the market price, specifically the closing price. Negative swaps occur, with buy swaps at -20% and sell swaps at -10%.
Positions carried over from Friday to Saturday will incur three days' worth of swaps, including the weekend. (Please refer to the notes below for more details.)
Examples:
-
If you buy 0.1 lot of BTC/USD with a closing price of 36,400: 0.1 x 1 x 36,400 x (-20) ÷ 100 ÷ 360 ≈ -2.0 USD
-
If you sell 0.5 lots of BTC/JPY with a closing price of 3,750,000: 0.5 x 1 x 3,750,000 x (-10) ÷ 100 ÷ 360 ≈ -521 JPY
-
If you buy 3 lots of LTC/JPY with a closing price of 14,910: 3 x 10 x 14,910 x (-20) ÷ 100 ÷ 360 ≈ -249 JPY
-
If you buy 0.01 lot of ADA/USD with a closing price of 0.7717: 0.01 x 1000 x 0.7717 x (-20) ÷ 100 ÷ 360 ≈ -0.01 USD (rounded to two decimal places)

- Remember that a swap is incurred when carrying over a Cryptocurrency CFD position to the next day.
- The closing price, which is the last Bid quote price just before the rollover for buy positions and the last ask quote price for sell positions, is used in swap calculations.
