A swap, aka a “rollover fee”✨, is what you get slapped with when you keep a position vibing overnight. 😴
A swap is basically the interest rate diff 💸 between the two currencies of the pair you’re trading. 💱
It's calculated based on whether you're going long or short, no cap. 😎

How to Calculate Swap
So, you wanna do some forex math? 🤓 Here’s the cheat code to calculate swap:
Swap = (Pip Value * Swap Rate * Number of Nights) / 10 💰
Rollover Example
You’re trading 1 mini lot or 10,000 units of GBP/USD (long) with a USD account, fam. 🔥
Pip value: $1 💵
Swap (long) rate: -3.3154
Swap fee: (1 * -3.3154 * 1) / 10 = -$0.33 🤷♂️
