Understanding Overnight Positions
At Excent Capital, trading doesn’t stop when the markets close. We support you beyond regular hours through what’s known as overnight trading giving you the flexibility to hold positions and capture opportunities around the clock.
What Is Overnight Trading?
Overnight trading refers to keeping a trade open after the regular trading session ends, usually overnight, when market activity is lower. Traders use this strategy to take advantage of price movements that happen while traditional markets are closed.
Traders often use this approach to:
Anticipate global news events that may impact market sentiment;
Benefit from economic data releases outside regular trading hours;
Respond to market reactions in other time zones;
Take advantage of market gaps;
Align with a longer-term investment strategy.
In simple terms, it means keeping your exposure to the markets even when they’re closed, allowing you to act on insights that arise outside of traditional trading sessions
How Does Overnight Trading Work?
Holding positions overnight can create additional opportunities for traders who want to stay connected to global movements beyond the standard session. One important element to be aware of is the swap fee, also known as the rollover rate.
This fee applies when a position remains open during periods of reduced market activity, and is typically determined by the length of time the trade remains open, the interest rate difference between currencies, and the overall value of your position.
Rollover fees reflect the value of maintaining extended access to the markets, such as on weekends, offering continued exposure when many others have already stepped out.
Understanding how these fees work allows you to plan your trades better and enhance your overall strategy.
