Dear Clients,
We would like to inform you that since July 19th, 2021 we will introduce following changes in regards to Swap Points/Overnight Financing:
Swap Points/Overnight Financing on futures based CFDs,
Swap Points/Overnight Financing rates provided in % on MT4 accounts only.
Swap Points/Overnight Financing on futures based CFDs
From July 19th, 2021 to the list of instruments where Swap Points/Overnight Financing have been charged we will also add instruments based on commodity and index futures (i.e.: DE30, OIL, US30, VOLX etc.). As a result all the instruments from our offer will be subject to charging Swap Points/Overnight Financing. The change considers both Rally xTrader and MT4 accounts.
The decision is purely based on Forex brokers industry offer analysis, where both our providers and our competitors charge Swap Points/Overnight Financing on this class of instruments or those costs are already included in other types of transaction costs (spreads, commissions etc.).
Swap Points/Overnight Financing rates provided in % on MT4
For MT4 accounts since July 19th, 2021 we will provide Swap Points/Overnight Financing as daily percentage costs (%). In other words we will stop sharing Swap Points/Overnight Financing in pips and switch into daily percentage (%).
As the Swap Points/Overnight Financing values will be computed based on percentage rates (%) the final swaps values will vary only on instruments that valuation depends on current price of a contract. For all FX instruments (currency pairs) the Swap Points/Overnight Financing will be fixed in terms of base/instrument currency through a week and may vary only due to a conversion rate of account currency.
Rally xTrader accounts will for time being remain status quo in terms of providing swap rates in pips. However in following months we will switch published Swap Points/Overnight Financing rates to percentage (%) as well. We will inform you in advance about it in separate communication.
