Topic: Swaps Do Change

Hello Traders,

I was curious whether swaps change frequently and whether I need to use "real swaps" in my newest and greatest backtester.

I made a simple script to collect swaps from MetaTrader 5 for each day. It stores the swaps in a local database for later use.

I checked it today and noticed the swaps had already changed twice over the last two weeks.

I'll try to find historical information for the swaps and will use it in my next program.

Trade Safe!
