Market rollover refers to the short period at the end of each trading day when open positions are carried over to the next trading day.
This is when brokers process daily account updates, including swaps (overnight fees).
How it works
Rollover typically occurs at 00:00 server time.
Any trades still open at this time are considered overnight positions.
During rollover:
Swaps are applied (charged or credited)
Spreads may widen temporarily
Liquidity can decrease, leading to increased volatility
Important Considerations
Trade execution may be slower or experience slippage during rollover.
Stop Loss and Take Profit levels may be affected due to spread widening.
It is generally a low-liquidity period, so caution is advised.
Key Points
Happens daily at market close (00:00 server time)
Applies only to open trades
Involves swap charges/credits
Can result in temporary market instability
Understanding rollover is important for managing overnight positions and avoiding unexpected trading costs or execution issues.
