As someone who has traded with a variety of brokers, assessing swap fees—also known as overnight financing costs—is always a priority for me. However, with DXtrade, I quickly noticed a critical issue: DXtrade is not a retail forex broker in the conventional sense, but rather a technology platform provider. Their core business is offering trading software (such as DXtrade CFD and DXtrade XT) to brokers and prop firms, not direct trading services to individual traders like myself. This structural difference has direct implications for any comparison of swap fees. From my experience, reputable, regulated brokers will clearly list their overnight financing rates because these can significantly influence trading costs for positions held overnight. Unfortunately, DXtrade itself is not regulated and, according to the data available, does not publish or manage swap fees for traders directly. Instead, the brokers using the DXtrade platform determine and communicate such costs to end users. This means any comparison between DXtrade and other brokers is not applicable in the usual sense, since the fee structure is entirely at the discretion of the actual broker, not the platform provider. Given the lack of direct regulation and the absence of published swap fees, I personally exercise considerable caution. In my judgement, it’s essential to verify overnight costs with the specific broker that utilizes DXtrade’s technology, keeping in mind that transparency around fees is a fundamental sign of trustworthiness in this industry. Without this information, I find it difficult to assess competitiveness or fairness compared to established, regulated brokers.
