When you trade CFDs at Saxo Bank, you finance the traded value through an overnight credit/debit charge. If you open and close a CFD position within the same trading day, you will not be subject to overnight financing.
When you hold a CFD position overnight your CFD position will consequently be subject to the following credit or debit:
- Holding Long CFD position after 17:00 EST incurs a financing charge, which is calculated as follows:
Price x No. of CFDs x (Saxo Offer financing rate + markup) x (Day count convention*) - Holding Short CFD position after 17:00 EST creates a financing credit, which is calculated as follows:
Price x No. of CFDs x (Saxo Bid financing rate - markdown) x (Day count convention*)

| Index CFDs: Long/short positions | +3.5%/-3.5% | +2.5%/-3.0% | +2.5%/-3.0% |
| Single stock CFDs: Long/short positions | +3.5%/-3.5% | +3.5%/-3.0% | +3.5%/-3.0% |
Short positions in single stock CFDs held overnight are subject to a borrowing fee, which is related to the cost of borrowing the underlying shares in the market. The fee varies for each CFD, depending on market conditions and the availability of shares. Instruments in high demand for short selling on the broader market can experience an increased cost of borrowing the underlying shares.
The borrowing rate will be fixed when the position is opened, at a minimum of 0.50%, and will be charged on a monthly basis. Please note that for certain corporate action events the borrowing rate on the short position may be reset to the current rate in the market upon execution of the corporate action.
If you open and close a CFD position within the same trading day, you are not subject to borrowing costs.

Overnight positions in Expiring CFDs are subject to a carrying cost. The carrying cost is calculated based on the daily margin requirement and applied when a position is held overnight. The funding rate used for calculating the carrying cost is based on the Carrying Cost Rate in the table below.
Carrying Cost = Margin requirement * Days held * Carrying Cost Rate / (365 or 360 days)
Carrying Cost Rate Account Tier| VIP | 0.5% |
| Platinum | 1.5% |
| Classic | 3.5% |
The Bid/Ask spread will be equal to the minimum target spread in approx. 99% of the quote updates, during the opening hours of the underlying cash market.
