Swap points on Wednesdays (T+2)

Just like other online brokers, swap charges are tripled on Wednesdays.

This is because the delivery date for the financial markets are T+2. So this means that the swap you are getting charged for is the swap points from two days ago(excluding Saturdays and Sundays).

As the swap points occur in Saturdays and Sundays can not be processed on the weekends as the markets are closed, so instead these swaps are calculated two days after the market open which is the Wednesdays.

As long as you don’t hold the position at the server time 00:00 on Wednesdays, you will not get tripled charge.

For traders who want the swaps to be credited in your accounts, the Wednesdays are the day they want to hold the positions.

Swap free accounts are only provided for Islamic traders.

In order to acquire the swap-free account, you will need to contact LMFX support team after an account opening but before you start trading and request for the account.

Arbitrage strategy is not allowed

Although you will be charged or credited by swap every night, you are not allowed to trade arbitrage using different swap points.

Arbitrage trading is simply a trading method to abuse the trading system and conditions.

You may be able to earn swap points to make profit with risk free if you hedge positions between different accounts by different brokers, but it is a prohibited trading method by most of the brokers.

LMFX has the right to cancel profits if the broker confirms that a trader has abused its trading platform and earned profited without risking his own funds.
