Definitions

A spread is the difference between the bid (buy) price and the ask (sell) price for a specific trade. It is therefore your cost of opening and closing a specific position and it could have a significant impact on the profitability of your trades.

Tighter spreads tend to mean lower trading costs, everything being equal. A tighter spread means that the market price doesn’t have to move as far from your entry price, for your trade to become profitable.

Volatility caused by major economic developments and market news can trigger sudden high fluctuations in the price of specific instruments, which can lead to an increase (or widening) of spreads, in order to cover the increased risk of volatile markets.

Margin: can be thought of as a deposit that is required when using leverage. Each time you open a leveraged position a certain amount of your account balance is secured as margin. The exact amount is dependent on the size of the position and the leverage which is being used. Margin is there to guarantee the position you have opened in case it goes against you.
PIP stands for Percentage in Point and it is a standardized unit and is the smallest amount by which a currency quote can change. It is usually $0.0001 for U.S.-dollar related currency pairs, which is more commonly referred to as 1/100th of 1%, or one basis point.
Leverage involves borrowing a certain amount of the money needed to invest in something. In the case of forex, that money is usually accommodated by a broker. Leverage allows investors to command a much larger investment than their capital will allow, thus allowing them to potentially increase their returns while only investing a percentage of the overall value of the asset in question.
An overnight charge or sometimes called a swap fee is charged when you keep a position open overnight.
A rollover refers to the process of closing out open positions in soon-to- expire contracts in favor of contracts with later expiration dates.

Conversion fees apply when your account currency is different than the quoted currency of the underlying asset being traded. The fee will be reflected as a percentage of the conversion rate used. This will affect any conversions made on the Profit and Loss, Overnight Rollovers (Financing), CFD Rollovers and adjustments for Corporate Actions (such as Dividends and Splits).

Conversion Fees are as follows:
Profit/Loss: 2%
Overnight Rollover (Swaps) : 2%
CFD Rollover: 2%
Dividend Conversion Fee: 2%
Split Conversion Fee: 2%

Examples

Let’s use an example that you would like to trade Sugar.

Sugar’s quoted currency = USD
Position Direction = Long (Buy)
Webtrader Volume = 12,600 ( MT4 = 1.26 lots)
MT4 Contract Size for Sugar = 10,000 lbs
MT4 Volume= Lots * Contract Size = 1.26 * 10,000 = 12,600 lbs

Contract Price Difference (at the rollover from expiring to new month contract)

New contract price minus Old contract price = 0.79 USD
Sugar’s Spread = 0.04 USD
Sugar’s Mid Closing Price of the Day = 11.61 USD/lbs
Sugar’s Overnight Swap Charge = -0.0217 % = - 0.000217

The Daily Overnight (Swap) Charge is calculated as follows:

Daily Swap Charge = Volume * Instrument’s Mid Closing Price * Instrument’s Overnight Swap Charge
Daily Swap Charge = 12,600 * 11.61 * (- 0.000217) = - 31,74 USD

The Rollover Adjustment is calculated as follows:

Rollover adjustment = Volume * Price Difference between New contract and Old contract
12,600 * 0.79 = 9,954 USD

Since you have a buy position and the price difference is positive, the USD 9,954 will be charged to your account to compensate the corresponding floating P&L increase on your open position. (If, for the same example, you have a sell position, the USD 9,954 would have been credited to your account as a compensation for negative P&L)
The Rollover Spread Charge is calculated as follows:

Rollover Spread Charge = Volume * Instrument’s Spread
Rollover Spread Charge = 12,600 * 0.04 = 504 USD

The spread charge is always charged on your account regardless of the type of position (buy or sell).
The Total Rollover adjustment is calculated as follows:

Total Rollover Adjustment = Rollover adjustment + Rollover spread charge = (-9,954) + (-504) = -10,458 USD

If your account currency is different from the instrument currency, then the amount is converted to your account currency at current market price.
