Topic: SWAP based on Base Currency

Forex. com bases is SWAP fees on base currency based on a 10K.  When I switch the SWAP TYPE in EA Studio from Points to Base Currency do I use a position of 10K or what?  For example Forex. com shows the Long Swap for EURUSD as -2.22 dollars based on a 10K position.  Do I leave it like this?

Re: SWAP based on Base Currency

When you use Swap Type in "Base Currency" it is exactly in currency.

If your account is in USD, the swap will be the corresponding amount in USD.

A swap of -2.2 will mean that your position loses 2.2 USD per day.
