IC Markets Global swap rates — from the MT5 symbol specification
48 measured fills · low sample — treat as indicative
These swap rates are read straight from IC Markets Global's own MT5 symbol specification on connected accounts — the same numbers the terminal uses to charge your account overnight — and refresh automatically on every sync. Negative means you pay to hold the position overnight; positive means you earn. Units depend on the broker's swap mode for each symbol (points are not dollars), so compare within a symbol, and mind triple-swap day.

Units depend on the broker's swap mode per symbol — points are not dollars, so compare within a symbol, not across brokers with different modes. Most forex symbols charge 3× swap on Wednesday night (triple-swap day); metals and indices often use Friday. Coverage grows as more symbols are traded on connected accounts.
FAQ
What are IC Markets Global's swap rates?
The table on this page lists long and short overnight swap per symbol, read from IC Markets Global's MT5 symbol specification on connected accounts (33 symbols covered so far — coverage grows as more symbols are traded). Negative values are a nightly cost; positive values are credited.
Why are swap units different across brokers?
MT5 lets brokers quote swaps in several modes — points, symbol currency, margin currency, deposit currency or annual interest percent. The mode is shown next to each symbol here. Points can't be compared to dollar amounts without the symbol's tick value, which is why this page never converts units by guessing.
When is triple swap charged?
Most forex symbols charge 3× swap on Wednesday night to cover the weekend settlement gap; many brokers use Friday for metals and indices. The exact day is set per symbol by the broker — check the symbol specification in your terminal if a nightly charge looks tripled.
