Important! With five-day trading, custody fees are formed only for working days: from Tuesday to Friday - standard commission calculated for each previous day of custody, and on Monday - triple commission (for Friday and weekends).
If the Trading without weekends setting is enabled in the broker's settings, a standard commission is formed for each of the seven days of the week.
