I know I've seen it some where but, could anyone tell me about when having an open trade, which pairs would accumulate more interest in my account?

renasdad,

for USA traders, i would suggest buying USD/JPY, USD/CHF if you want the best "tomnext" interest rates.

Best wishes.

From what I have in the past been told, and from my own experience, is not a long position on GBP/JPY the best bet. Of course, right now would not be the right time with the pair currently headed downward. I was wanting to buy this pair as a carry trade if it got down to 200 or below, but it just has not cooperated lately.

At least with some brokers, they will not pay you interest, and will charge you a fee, unless you have a 50:1 account. MBT will pay interest on all of their accounts and they only have 100:1.

I would be interested in knowing why USD/JPY or USD/CHF might be more desirable. Thank you.
