How much are overnight short borrow fees and how are they calculated?

Overnight borrow fees apply when you hold a short position overnight.

How it works:

  • The fee is charged each day a short position is held overnight
  • Fees continue to apply until the cover trade settles
  • Charges may include weekdays, weekends, and holidays

    Important:
  • Borrow rates can change daily based on market conditions
  • You can view an estimate in the client portal under: Tools → Overnight Borrow Calculator
  • The calculator reflects all applicable days, including weekends and holidays
  • It is recommended to check the calculator regularly if you plan to hold short positions overnight
