Me too, maybe i'm risking too much on this eurchf snb game, but i see the event of snb removing the peg because of imf unlikely, they stress soo much about "utmost determination" "1.20 will NEVER be tested" "bla bla bla" and with the huge amount of stoplosses and sell-stop orders below 1.20, if they remove the peg eurchf really may drop 2-3000 pips in one day, and i guess it would not be a good thing for the swiss economy. Also the market didn't reacted at all to this news/article, seems like traders fully belive and trust the snb, no matter if imf ask this or that, they are not snb.

Hello,

can you recommend a reputable broker, which actually pays me swap for holding EURCHF long?

My broker became very greedy lately... politely said...:-)

definitely not. if anyone offers positive swap at the moment for eurchf long, it can change it in the blink of an eye without warning, just as mine did.

I found 2 of them: Hotforex and GoMarkets Australia. Both pays swap for EC long according to their web sites, the only problem, that I don't know nothing about them.

Those are 2 ways to benefit from the positive swap. I trade RF through IB but with slippage and rollover you still lose much of the positive carry - but it still remains positive. Forwards are supposed to be better, but unfortunately unavailable through IB.

Exness still pays me about $2.90/day per lot for long EUR/CHF. It'd be a really bad thing if they stop .

90 or a little less days from expiration you can fairly easily get the 8 points discount on spot price with RF (eurchf futures contract on globex) Problem is rolling over every 90 days as there's usually a 3 bips spread on those and the later dated contracts are inactive.

It will be interesting to see where AUDCHF ends up today. The 9500-9550 looks like there could decent long opp. Good swap also. Only thing is the AUD seems to be the laggard after the China news yesterday.

Happy trading,
Adam

My brokert told me that they roll it over without any pips.
Thanks for the info, I will ask again.

BTW 9 months was 22 pips or similar.

Then I guess if that happens you fully deserve that bankruptcy.
