Spread Costs refers to the amount of the loss caused by the spread, and Swap Benefits refers to the amount of the income gained by overnight positions. Spread Costs is an important indicator for short-term traders, especially for scalping traders, and Swap Benefits is an important indicator for long-term traders. Since the spreads and swaps on the MetaTrader 4 platform are all expressed in points, we need to convert it into the amount expressed in the account currency. This tool can display the Spread Costs and Swap Benefits of all Forex currency pairs (including gold XAU and silver XAG) in different account types (USD account, EUR account, etc.). All data in the panel tab is updated in real time.

Calculation

Spread Costs = Lots × OnePointValue × Spreads
Swap Benefits = Lots × OnePointValue × Swaps

Among them:

OnePointValue: value of one point expressed in the account currency
Spreads: spreads expressed in points
Swaps: swaps expressed in points

Note: On the day of "3-days swap", which is usually Wednesday, the results of the Swap Benefits are multiplied by 3.

For detailed calculation method for OnePointValue, see the article:
