USD/ZAR price action is definitely parabolic which means a correction is near. Watch for correlation to any commodity weakness, which is what has brought down the ZAR over the last year. Overnight swap (interest) is 26 pips

If you know of a broker with more generous swaps please share.

well that is meaning your paying interest right? yea SA is in bad shape very bad shape i now work commodities and they barely ordering anything these days. ( i have not checked whereits at as rubble payting more interest and i believe it was under valued so i sold us and bought rubble for 5.6% interest rate as they have 17% inflation currently.

I hope you guys followed through with the EURZAR carry trade. I recently exited this trade and await a re-entry opportunity.
