Which broker gives positive swap for EURCHF long? At Alpari long/short is negative.
Activtrades is positive. It was 0.15 pip last week, but they limited to 0.04 pip only

Forex.com long EUR/CHF rollover is zero, but some days pay 1.1USD for 10K.
So it's enough for a beer.

Exness pays positive EUR/CHF Long swaps. Euro benchmark rate is 1.00%, which Swiss is 0-0.25%. Longs should be positive. I also hope Swiss will switch to negative interest rate soon too.

Not sure about others, but Oanda has been charging interest on long EUR/CHF positions since Feb 1.
What is the reason for that? I dont remember SNB to raise the rate

It may rocket upwards on monday, or wait for a small break below 1.2 before the bank intervenes sending it north fast

Thanks Simon73, joancb, infinity76, enivid. I'm affraid there are to many people in long position and the banks don't allow to get this profit. Maybe they discuss a 150-200 pips spike. If that happens I can't do anything because Forex is not regulated or I can reffer to CME?

The SNB already pronounced itself on Friday saying that the peg is an absolute minimum, so the chances of a break under 1.2 seems unlikely, but maybe the market needs to get closer to 1.2 for the SNB to intervene, but personally I still don´t expect any movement above 1.24, the highs since the peg was implemented.

I'll tell you EXACTLY the percentage of longs/shorts here, from official sources; 95/5.
SNB will not allow that so many longs make so much money so fast... and will not rise the price before this sees new lows, like ... 1.15 ? 1.10 ?

More; in previous messages, 6-8 weeks ago i warned about a fall to 1.18 or lower.

This can fall like hell, then rise like hell.

I will also lose some money because my account is in euro and i'm short in AUDCHF right now.
Ugly, but i see it at 1.15 or 1.10 and not only for psicho reasons but also for technicals, which was the first that called me here.
I'll shop after the drop

SNB don't care about who will make money with long or short. Especially don't care about retail traders positonis.

SNB goal is do price stability, and defend deflation, wtih the peg, with unlimited quantity or with other mesaures.

I think this official 95/5 ratio is for retail traders. It is not important.

Simon, you're absolutely right. No big money here, but disaster for longs can come, euro is very weak still.
It's not a pair to "do" right now.

Just one hour till the Jordan's speaking

http://www.forexlive.com/blog/2012/0...-session-high/

Today data shows, that SNB did not intervened in January (and December too). So they could defend the peg without cost. So if they want to defend the peg/or lift the peg they have enough money

As i said earlier, the SNB has the most professional comunication strategy, and professional members to do this strategy. Just saying, and achive their goals. It is briliant, i think.

There is another interesting news: http://www.forexlive.com/blog/2012/0...the-snb-up-to/

Earlier the SNB had not contract with Asian central banks, so the only time when the peg could broken was the asian seesion (In 2009 the 1.5 peg was broken at 2 o clock GMT during Asian session)

This news says that SNB do everything to defend the peg on Asian session too.

SNB has postponed Jordan’s speaking from 10:45 GMT to 11:15 GMT and published foreign currency reserve data with one day delay, isn’t strange?
