Spread & Swap Monitor — Real-Time Trading Cost & Rollover Fee Tracker for MT5
Never enter a trade blind to broker spreads and overnight financing fees. Spread & Swap Monitor provides an elegant, non-intrusive on-chart HUD that continuously tracks live spread volatility against a rolling average and calculates real swap costs directly converted into your account currency.
KEY FEATURES
- Real-Time Spread Tracking: Displays live spread in both pips and raw points.
- Dynamic Volatility Alert: Spread value turns green (normal), yellow (warning), or red (critical expansion) based on its statistical ratio against your chosen rolling average sample.
- Accurate Overnight Swap Estimator: Calculates exact estimated swap charges per reference lot in your account currency (e.g. USD, EUR) across all broker swap modes (Points, Deposit Currency, Interest, and Swap-Free).
- Triple Swap Day Detection: Displays the broker's 3-day rollover schedule (e.g., Wednesday or none) so you never get surprised by weekend financing multipliers.
- Adaptive Auto Theme & High Contrast: Automatically detects chart background luminance to match light or dark themes with WCAG AA compliant contrast ratio (>= 4.5:1).
- Universal 4-Corner Docking: Cleanly docks in any of the 4 chart corners and stays firmly pinned during timeframe switches, chart zooming, or window resizing.
- One-Click Minimize: Collapse the panel into a compact title badge anytime to maximize chart real estate.
STANDARDIZED PIP CONVENTIONS
To ensure transparent, non-ambiguous pip metrics across all asset classes:
- 5-Digit & 3-Digit Forex (EURUSD, USDJPY): 1 pip = 10 points (e.g. 12 pts = 1.2 pips).
- Gold (XAUUSD / GOLD, 2 Digits): 1 pip = 10 points = $0.10 price movement.
- Crypto (BTCUSD, ETHUSD, 2 Digits): 1 pip = 100 points = $1.00 price movement (e.g. 1926 pts = 19.3 pips).
- Indices (US30, US500, GER40) & 4-Digit Forex: 1 pip = 1 point.
