Interest rates

Instruments

The tab contains information about the existing swap rates for instruments within the broker's system.

The table includes filters for Date, Instrument, and instrument Category.

Click Edit in the instrument row to modify its swap rates by filling in the Swap short or Swap long fields.

To manually enter swap rates, click Swap Short/Long, and in the side page that opens, enter the required data for the selected instruments. Click Add and specify values for each instrument.

Important! When entering swap rates, they will be applied to the specified date and all subsequent dates.

• The Export instrument rates function allows you to download instrument swap rates in .xls format for saving.

• The Import instrument rates function allows you to upload instrument swap rates in .xls format for use in the system.

Please note! If the loaded table contains multiple records for the same instrument, the system will use the data from the last one.

If needed, you can upload your own swap rates in MT5 format. To do this, enable the Mirror long option during import. This will automatically invert the uploaded Long rates (multiply them by -1), ensuring they are displayed correctly on the platform.
