Understanding Swap Rates in UAE Forex Markets
English language offers detailed swap rate data tailored for traders in the United Arab Emirates. Our platform calculates overnight financing costs applied to open forex positions held past rollover time. Swap rates reflect interest rate differences between currencies involved in a trade. We update these rates daily at precisely 23:00 UAE time, ensuring up-to-date figures. Traders can view both long and short swap rates before confirming trades, enabling better cost management.
Swap rates are applied automatically by our system during position rollover, with clear visibility into charges or credits. Our service supports over 50 currency pairs with transparent swap rate policies. Accounts with Islamic status benefit from swap-free conditions while maintaining full access to our tools. Swap costs are displayed in AED or the trader’s base currency to maintain clarity in profit and loss calculations.
| Currency Pair | Long Swap (pips) | Short Swap (pips) | Update Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | -2.1 | +0.8 | 23:00 UAE |

Swap Rate Calculation Methods for UAE Traders
English language uses rigorous formulas to establish swap rates reflecting current market conditions and UAE regulatory standards. Our calculations incorporate central bank benchmark rates, interbank lending costs, and liquidity provider spreads. The process is fully automated and executed every night at rollover time (23:00 UAE), with no manual input needed.
Interest Rate Differential Calculations
The core of swap rate computation is the interest rate difference between the base and quote currencies. Our platform uses the Tom-Next interbank lending rate as the primary reference, adjusting for broker margins and volatility. This approach ensures that swap costs are precise and reflect real trading conditions.
Account Currency Conversion Process
Swap charges are converted into the trader’s account base currency using real-time exchange rates at rollover time. The system maintains high decimal accuracy (up to five decimal places) to avoid rounding errors. This clarity allows UAE traders to predict exact swap costs or credits incurred during overnight holds.
Islamic Account Swap-Free Trading Options
For UAE clients observing Sharia principles, we provide Islamic trading accounts that are entirely swap-free. Instead of overnight interest fees, these accounts apply a fixed administrative charge per day on positions held overnight. This complies fully with Islamic finance regulations and allows uninterrupted market access.
- Zero swap charges on all currency pairs and commodities
- Administrative fee set at 0.02% daily on position value
- Eligibility requires UAE residency and Emirates ID verification
- Minimum balance requirement of 1000 AED
- Approval process completed within 24 hours
Our Islamic accounts retain all platform features without restrictions. Dedicated Arabic-speaking support assists with account setup and compliance questions. This option ensures UAE traders can operate in line with their religious requirements while using our advanced trading environment.
| Account Type | Swap Charges | Administrative Fee | Minimum Balance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Yes | No | 250 AED |
| Islamic | No | 0.02% daily | 1000 AED |
| Professional | Yes | No | 10000 AED |
| Corporate | Negotiable | Custom | 25000 AED |
Optimizing Trading Strategies with Swap Rates
Our platform enables UAE traders to leverage swap rate data to refine their trading techniques, particularly for carry trades and short-term approaches. We provide filtering tools to isolate currency pairs offering positive swap returns. Historical swap rate charts assist in backtesting strategies effectively.
Carry Trade Implementation Through English language
Carry trades involve holding long positions in high-interest currencies against low-interest ones to earn swap income. Our system highlights suitable pairs like AUD/JPY or NZD/USD with positive long swap rates. Traders can size positions based on projected swap earnings while applying risk controls.
Short-term Trading Swap Considerations
Short-term traders can avoid swap fees by closing positions before rollover time. Our platform displays exact rollover countdowns and offers alerts to facilitate timely position management. This reduces unnecessary overnight costs and improves net profitability.
