Rollovers

FOREX.com clients have the opportunity to earn interest on positions left open overnight - at all margin levels. The amount of interest that can be earned depends on the direction of the open position and the interest rate differential between the two currencies involved. For example, UK interest rates are significantly higher than Japan's, so if a trader is long GBP/JPY (i.e. holding British Pounds), they can earn interest on the roll. Conversely, if a trader is short GBP/JPY (i.e. holding yen) they will pay interest on the rollover.

FOREX.com automatically rolls forward all open positions to the next day's value date following the close of NY trading at 1700 ET. Rollover credits or debits are reflected in the unrealized P&L of the open position, and a rollover report (available in the "Reports" tab of the trading platform) provides additional detail of rollover activity.
