    @TenPound, please provide a real comparison.

    Unlike most other firms, AMP does NOT increase swaps. We charge our customers the exact swaps that our LPs charge, it is actually automatically updated daily directly from the LP, so it is hard to believe other firms have lower swaps.

    A few examples:

    EUR/USD

    AMP EUROPE -16.3
    - 0.3

    Other Broker -8.63
    +4.68

    GBP/USD

    AMP EUROPE -11.8
    -5.2

    Other Broker -5.41
    +1.87

    USD/JPY

    AMP EUROPE -1.6
    -12.4

    Other Broker +3.83
    -7.59

    GBP/JPY

    AMP EUROPE -5.8
    -13

    Other Broker +0.65
    -7.15

    AUD/USD

    AMP EUROPE -6.8
    -3.7

    Other Broker -2.07
    +0.17

    And it goes on and on and.....

    No doubt, AMP EUROPE has very bad Forex-Swaps.

    We see what you are saying....but this is just the way MT5 setting is required for proper calculations to match our LP swaps.

    For example, EUR/USD - here is our LP direct swap

    AMP EUR/USD Swap

    How MT5 Swap charge setting works...AMP's setting are required to match our LP.

    Now you can properly compare Swaps AMP's LP vs your example "Other broker":

    Other Broker -8.63
    +4.68

    You can now see AMP/LP swaps are actually alot lower than the "other broker".

    Fine. We all agree that the displayed numbers are wrong. At least for me as a trader.
    So I have to convert them every time.

    -16.3 becomes 1.63
    -0.03 becomes -0.3

    I am not a mathematical genius but here I do not come up with a formula that fits both.

    No plans to add any additional CFD commodities to MT4.
    You can trade all the REAL Exchange-Traded Futures with MT5:

    If we add any additional platforms we will for sure let all our clients and ET Members know.

    They are NOT wrong...they are setup in proper format to be properly charged by the MT5 Swap Formula.

    Here is the MT5 Swap Formula:

    'swap value' * 'volume' * 'contract size' * 10^(-digits) = Swap

    So, for example, 1 lot of EURUSD for 1 day will have:

    -16.3 * 1 * 10 000 * 0.00001 = -1.63 USD*

    *Conversion rate depends on Client's Base Deposit currency of the MT5 account.

    If you want to Test, we use the same MT5 swap formula in DEMO - you can carry a DEMO position and you will see the swap charged on the DEMO position.
