Having traded with a variety of global brokers over many years, I’ve learned to pay close attention to swap fees—overnight financing costs can have a significant impact on long-term trading profitability. In the case of Citadel Securities, according to the available information, they are a major market maker operating in equities, options, fixed income, and FX, and are regulated by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong. However, concrete details about their swap fee schedule are not prominently disclosed in their public materials. From my perspective, this absence of published swap rates means I cannot definitively compare their fees to those offered by other brokerage firms known for transparent pricing in forex products. In my experience, reputable brokers typically make their overnight rates easily accessible, as it supports traders’ ability to manage costs and risk. Given their institutional focus and broad asset coverage, it is reasonable to expect Citadel Securities to offer swap fees competitive with established players; however, without clear published figures, I would approach with cautious optimism. Personally, before considering them for active trading that involves holding positions overnight, I would recommend directly contacting their support channels for detailed information about overnight costs. Transparency and predictability in fee structures are vital for risk management, and I always prioritize brokers who provide this clarity.
