As a trader who prioritizes both cost transparency and strong regulatory oversight, I approach brokers like ABX with a great deal of caution—especially when it comes to overnight financing, or swap, fees. Unfortunately, based on the available information, ABX does not clearly disclose its swap fee structure, which is immediately a point of concern for me. In my personal trading experience, brokers operating without clear, public details on such costs often leave traders vulnerable to unexpected charges, eroding profits over time. Moreover, because ABX appears to be unregulated despite claims of Australian oversight, I find it difficult to verify whether their fees are competitive or fair in the broader market. By contrast, I’ve seen other established brokers—particularly those definitively regulated in Australia or the UK—offer full fee schedules and provide robust dispute mechanisms should costs be unclear or excessive. This lack of transparency at ABX means I would never assume their swap fees are favorable; there’s simply too much risk that costs could be higher or subject to arbitrary change. For me, the uncertainty and absence of regulatory protection make it impossible to find ABX’s overnight financing terms trustworthy or suitable when compared to competitors. I urge anyone considering this broker to exercise extreme caution, prioritizing transparency and security when evaluating potential trading costs.
