Assessing Fortex’s overnight swap fees compared to other brokers is challenging, as the available information doesn’t clearly specify their fee structure for holding positions overnight. In my experience as a trader, the transparency and competitiveness of swap rates are very important; established and regulated brokers typically make these details public and easily accessible. However, with Fortex, not only is there a lack of regulation—raising my personal caution levels—but there’s also limited data on their actual trading costs, including swap fees. From what I could gather, Fortex is positioned more as a technology provider and liquidity bridge than a client-facing retail broker, which complicates direct swaps comparisons. Most of the industry’s reputable brokers list their overnight financing costs clearly, helping me to calculate my long-term trade expenses and risk management. The absence of publicly available swap rate information from Fortex would force me to reach out directly to their team or possibly even open an account just to access these details, which is far from ideal for informed decision-making. Ultimately, because I place heavy emphasis on transparency and regulatory oversight—especially when it comes to any fees that can erode trading profits over time—I would be very cautious about engaging with a broker that does not disclose its swap fees upfront or is not regulated. For me, this makes it impossible to confidently compare Fortex’s swap costs with those of more established brokers.
