Question about swap rates

#1 Postby JJLL » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:31 pm

I am curious about swap rates and FT. Does any of the historical data that can be downloaded into FT have swap rates? I know that the swap rate can be manually placed within FT. I am wondering why it's not included in the data itself? Or is it?

Thank You!!

Hello,

Swaps are based on Forexite broker. If your broker uses different swaps, please change them in symbol properties.
We recommend to use swap rates which your broker uses, in this case you will be able to have the most similar results.
Do not forget to re-generate ticks after this so you will see these changes in Testing Mode.
For example, you can find swaps here:

Good afternoon.

What do you mean by " re-generate ticks", FX Helper?
I purchased FT3 + VIP data and I'm learning how to use it.

Hello,

"Generating ticks" is a functionality that is present in the Forex Tester 2 version only.

If you have Forex Tester 3, please create a new project instead.
