S squeeze Feb 7, 2006 #32 MBT-Steve, I have a question about the way MB calculate interest on forex positions. For instance, if I have $100K in my margin account and buy $1M GBP, what will be interest rate debits/credits from holding this position overnight? Some worked examples of interest rate calculations would be a useful addition to the website.
