In forex trading, a swap is an agreement between two parties to exchange financial instruments or currencies at a predetermined future date. The most common type of swap is an interest rate swap, where two parties agree to exchange interest payments on a notional amount of principal.

In the forex market, swaps can refer to the overnight interest rate that traders pay or receive for holding a position overnight. This can either be a positive or negative amount depending on the interest rate differential between the two currencies being traded.

Swaps can be an important consideration for forex traders who hold positions for an extended period, as they can impact the overall profitability of a trade. Some traders may use swap-free accounts to avoid these costs, although this may come with other trading restrictions.

A SWAP or currency swap is a type of derivative contract through which two parties exchange the cash flows associated with two different financial instruments. In a foreign exchange swap, one party will exchange a set amount of one currency for an equal amount of another currency at a forward exchange rate. The two parties will then exchange the principal and interest payments associated with the two instruments over the life of the swap. In forex trading, currency swaps are used to hedge against currency movements and to gain exposure to different currencies without having to buy or sell the underlying currency. Currency swaps can also be used to take advantage of interest rate differentials in different countries.

Don't use a swap account especially if your funds are small, because I'm worried that your capital will run out because of swaps.
