Signals and swap

 
Hi everyone, 

Im looking into a few signals that trade Forex and while downloading the history file for all trades, there is a column called 'swap'. 
Does anyone know what this is? 

Thanks.

Its the interest that you pay or get paid, for its position held overnight.

Hi Eleni, thanks for the answer. Is this related to the Leverage in the account?

MQL5 system does not count abnormal growth, it turns them grey.

Its not always happening, but there you are.

Not at all, it has to do with the interest you pay when you hold a position overnight if the currency you bought has lower interest than the one you sold and vice versa for swap that you get paid.
