JustForex has a special option for representatives of the Islamic faith. Sharia law prohibits trading with swaps. Due this fact, special swap-free trading accounts were created.

A swap is a fee for an operation of closing an order at midnight of one trading day and reopen it at the close price the next day. With swap-free accounts traders can keep open positions as long as they want, without adding a swap size to or charging it from the account. In this case, the result of trading can be affected only by the change in the exchange rates for a specific period of time.

Using of swap-free accounts is optional. To convert your Standard Cent, Standard, Pro or Raw Spread account into a swap-free one, you should contact the support team.
