A swap refers to the interest that is either paid or earned for a trade that is kept overnight. This comes in the form of a fee for rolling over to the next trading day and is charged to the client's account or deducted from it at 23:59, trading platform time, according to the instrument specifications (excluding Invest.MT5 account type). A swap can take different forms, for example in Forex - it is a currency swap, in commodities - interest rate.
