What is the validity of a transaction and what is an Automatic Rollover?
The option of automatic rollover allows investors to leave positions open for a self-determined period.
When a new position (spot or forward) opens, it has a default expiry (value) date.
At the end of the value date (server time), an automatic process rollovers all relevant open positions to the next spot value date (2 additional business days). All rollovers are performed at competitive rollover rates depending on which currency pairs are involved. During the rollover process, traders will either earn or pay away points depending on the interest rate differential between the two currencies.
The status of the automatic rollover can be modified on the AR field.
