Swap in your strategy: profit centre or slow leak?

For swing and position traders, swap can be a meaningful income on the right side of a carry or a constant drag on the wrong one. Most strategies never mention it, and most statements do.

How do you treat swap?

• whether you choose trade direction partly for swap
• the pairs where swap changed your results
• how you verify the swap numbers you're being charged

The carry trade guide and trading costs guide cover both sides.
