What is an Islamic Trading Account?

Islamic Trading Account, also known as 'No Swap Account' is a specific type of trading account that follows the Sharia laws and therefore allows Muslims to engage in trading activities.

Unlike conventional finance, finance in Islamic countries is mainly driven by ethical goals and considerations. As such, it comes with different rules and regulations.

These are all considered in our Swap-free accounts and therefore Muslim traders do NOT pay swap, interest or overnight charges on trades for Forex & Metals.

However, if a trader holds a position open for over 10 days, a flat rate fee will be charged. Please see the fixed rates below.

Islamic Account's cost of trading

Swap-Free Islamic Accounts are retail client accounts in which investors do not pay or earn swap or interest on any trades. Your position is open for 10 days, and swap is ZERO.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is forex and CFD trading halal or haram?

CFD and forex trading can be considered halal, but it depends on how it's carried out. To comply with Islamic finance principles, trading must avoid interest (riba), meaning Islamic clients should use an Islamic or swap-free account that doesn't charge or pay overnight interest. It should also be based on real assets and conducted with genuine analysis and strategy rather than gambling or excessive speculation. When done this way, forex and CFD trading can align with Sharia guidelines and be considered forex trading halal.
