As someone with years of personal experience in FX, I always prioritize transparent and competitive swap fees, since overnight financing costs add up closely in long-term trading. With GMO CLICK, I've found their swap—or rollover—fees straightforward: for the average buyer’s position, the annual rate is 2.00%. On the other hand, sellers see no interest paid, and short-term stock lending is around 3.85%. These figures stand out by being stated clearly, something that isn’t always the norm across the industry. When I compare GMO CLICK to many global brokers I’ve used, their swap rates seem quite reasonable for retail trading, particularly considering Japan's regulatory scrutiny and their longstanding FSA oversight. Many offshore or less strictly regulated brokers offer more enticing swap-free conditions, but they often lack the same level of oversight or have hidden catches. With GMO CLICK, the rates aren’t the lowest in the global market but given the broker’s full transparency, strong licensing, and focus on cost containment (notably zero inactivity and commission fees for many products), I feel comfortable with the pricing model. As always, I remind traders that swap rates can change based on market conditions and are just one part of the total cost equation, but for me, GMO CLICK offers a defensible, predictable structure for overnight positions.
