Rollover Rates FAQs

How are rollovers determined?

Rollover rates are based on the interest rate differential of the two currencies and the spot price. However, rollover rates can be impacted by market conditions, especially at the end of a quarter or year. We periodically review our rollover rates and adjust them to fit with current market and industry conditions.

To learn more about factors that impact currency markets, read our 'Key factors that affect the forex markets' page.

Can I avoid paying rollover?

At FOREX.com, rollovers are not applied to intraday trades. No interest is paid or received if you open and close a position within the same trading day after 5pm ET and before 5pm ET the following day. Other brokers may apply rollovers on a continuous, second-by-second basis. This policy may ultimately end up raising your total trading costs, especially if the broker's rollovers are not competitive.
