Premium Flowers / Swap
This time we will learn about the SWAP is also often called the world of forex trading as a flower or flowers Overnight Premium. Here we will learn how to calculate swap / interest that overnight.
Previously, you need to know the interest rate the Central Bank of each country, please open Belajarforex a link that contains interest rates a number of countries in the world.

You mean the Central Bank interest rates, respectively, are such as to IDR (Indonesian Rupiah) that we see is the value of the interest rate provided by the Central Bank of the Republic of Indonesia, the Bank of Indonesia. As of this writing, interest rates imposed by Bank Indonesia for the currency IDR was 7.75% per year. As for USD (U.S. Dollars - United States) interest rates we will consider is the interest rate the U.S. central bank is set, namely the Federal Reserve (commonly called the Fed) of 0.25% per year.
If you look closely, you can see an opportunity here! Did occur to you?
What if I can borrow, say $ 1 million from a bank in the U.S.? Value interest rate the Federal Reserve is set for 0.25% is actually a way for the Federal Reserve to control the savings rate of all banks in the U.S. and at the same interest rate loans as well. Just like in Indonesia, if the Bank Indonesia interest rate determines the previous BI fell to 8% 7%, then this will be followed by banks in Indonesia to lower deposit rates to approach the specified value of BI, such as before 8 , 5% per year to 7.5% per year. The same goes for interest rates / credit, which was 13% per year, probably will fall to 11.5% a year. So we can generally infer the value of central bank interest rate a country will affect the deposit rates and loans, and the difference in the value of central bank interest rates are generally not large.
Back to the topic of 'Opportunity' before, there is an opportunity to borrow from banks in the U.S. amounted to USD 1 million in interest on loans, such as 3% a year. Then I break this into AUD CAD and I deposited in a bank in Indonesia with deposit interest of 7.5%. I have a difference of +4.5% / year. Interesting is not it? Live pinjem-pinjem aja;). This technique is known as the Carry Trade a few years to bloom practiced enough. Sekalikah this simple? In fact doing so is not that simple, it risks and difficulties we will not discuss in this article but this is the basis for us to understand why the swap or the Overnight Interest in forex trading.
Now, let us consider only the interest rate frequently traded currency in forex trading, such as GBP (Great Britain Pound - UK) and CAD.
A set interest rate is the central bank. For example we are going to trade GBP / USD. British central bank is the Bank of England and the U.S. central bank is the Federal Reserve. Remember interest rates listed are for a year.
If the GBP will strengthen against the USD in the long run, so we took the initiative to open Buy GBP / USD in a floating position ahead 1-3 days, for example for us to trade 1 lot just in Mini Accounts.
We can ensure that the position of Buy 1 lot GBP / USD is going to get a premium interest rate / interest rate swaps for the UK higher than American rates. Current column for the Bank of England Rate 1.0% and in the Current column of the Federal Reserve Rate is for 0.25%.
Daily swap (premium rate) position Buy GBPUSD is as follows:
Given the interest rate per annum of England (BoE) was 1.0% and,
interest rate per annum America (FED) is of 0.25%.
Theoretical formula of premium rate / swap per day are as follows:
Pair A / B - Position Buy:
((A state interest rate - Interest rate on state B)% x Total Lot x Contract Size) / 365 days
Pair A / B - Position Sell:
((Interest rates of B - A state rates)% x Total Lot x Contract Size) / 365
So for the opening of the Buy 1 lot GBP / USD is:
((A British interest rate - Interest rate U.S. state)% x 1 x 10,000) / 365
= ((1-0.25)% x 1 x 10,000) / 365 = 75 / 365
= $ 0.2 per day for 1 lot.
So for each lot of positions Buy GBP / USD will RECEIVE $ 0.2 per day
Conversely, if doing a position Sell GBP / USD for more than 1 day will PAY a swap of $ 0.2 per lot him.
One more example for the theoretical swap AUD / JPY.
Ausi Interest rate: 3.25% & Japanese interest rate: 0.1%.
Based on calculations, if you do Buy 1 lot of AUD / JPY will RECEIVE a swap of $ 0.86 per day. And indeed if you do Sell position more than one day will PAY swap for $ 0.86.
Here is a table of theoretical swap for Mini Accounts with another 10,000 contracts as much as 1 lot per day for the position of Buy & Sell:
Pair / Couple currency
Buy Premium ($)
Sell Premium ($)
For the standard account (contract 100.000) live 10 times. For example for the opening of 10 lots (standard account) AUD / USD then the swap is obtained for 10 x 0.82 = $ 8.2.
Another broker, the other also the policy for the swap / interest rate premium.
Here are the details of the swap of each broker:
MBTrading with MBTNavigator
Seems that every position lotnya Sell a premium will be subject to interest large enough when compared with the position Buy.
The largest swap positions Buy NZD / JPY in the amount of 5.30% per year and if you take the position Sell NZD / JPY will be charged a swap -9.38%.
To be mengkoversi dollars are as follows:
Buy Premium NZD / JPY 1 lot = (5.3% x 10,000) / 365 = $ 1.45
Premium Sell NZD / JPY 1 lot = (-9.3% x 10,000) / 365 = - $ 2.55
Capital Gain using Metatrader 4:

Shown in the table above for the volume size of 0.1 which means, trader opened 1 lot of position. Ditabel seems that an open position Buy EURUSD more than one day will earn interest $ 0.1 per lot and vice versa if you Sell EURUSD position more than one day will be charged the premium rate or a swap of $ 0.5. From the above table is the largest premium Buy now Buy AUDJPY which will earn interest cost of $ 0.43 and the largest swap is when you leave the position AUDJPY Sell more than 1 day in the amount of $ 0.86. Oh yes, we were reminded again, opening the position 1 lot on a mini account is at Forex.com metatrader 0.1 Vol. If you choose Vol 1.0 then it is means you choose the opening position of 10 lots. Hayoo, do not let one more well ... be careful in choosing the volume of transactions at Forex.com Metatrader platform. Contact us if still confused.
Asia Kapitalindo using Metatrader 4:

As the Asian trading platform Metatrader Kapitalindo with a swap arrangement would seem to be traded pairs per lot as follows:
* Buy EUR / USD: -4.50
* Buy GBP / USD: - $ 4.88
* Sell USD / CHF: - $ 12.66
* Buy & Sell USD / JPY: - $ 4.17
* Buy AUD / USD: $ 1.83
Conclusion: Based on theoretical calculations & the reality of the field, the value of the swap or interest rate can differ from one another. Based on observations of the smallest swap is when customers trade in MBTrading Futures. Swap apply when a position is still held (floating) exceeds 04.00 o'clock in the morning.
Thus our explanation, to be honest you can ignore this if you swap a mini trading account at Capital Gain or MBTrading.
