RoboForex has announced the introduction of swap-free trading across all its markets, removing overnight fees for clients without offsetting those costs through wider spreads or higher commissions.
The move extends a feature that had been piloted in several Latin American countries, and represents a shift from the approach taken by many brokers, who typically compensate for the removal of swaps by adjusting other cost components.
Under the new model, clients opening a swap-free account will not incur overnight holding charges on positions across a range of instruments, including currencies and metals. RoboForex states that no additional commissions or mark-ups are applied to spreads in exchange for swap-free status, and that the feature is available to all clients on newly created accounts.
The broker positions the offering as part of a broader effort to reduce cost-related uncertainty for traders holding positions over extended periods, particularly in volatile market conditions where price fluctuations already present significant risk exposure.
Douglas Abreu, LATAM Operations Director, RoboForex
"Following a successful test launch last year in several Latin American countries and strong positive feedback from clients, we decided to scale swap-free trading across all our markets. This step reflects our broader focus on simplifying trading conditions and making costs more transparent and predictable, giving traders more flexibility in managing longer-term positions."
The launch sits alongside existing cost measures at the broker, including commission-free deposits and up to three free withdrawals per month.
RoboForex is a financial broker operating under brokerage licence number FSC 9759600, offering access to proprietary trading terminals and third-party platforms.
