FXCM Dividend Calendar

Dividends are applied on the Eve of the Ex-Dividend date.

For example, if the Ex-Dividend Date was February 3rd. All positions held at the end of February 2nd would be subject to a dividend adjustment. To avoid paying dividends, you can close your position before 5PM EST and the adjustment would not apply.

The differential may be both a result of an FXCM Markup and Withholdings.

For example for US shares, as per Section 871 of US tax code. A tax applies on dividend adjustments to traders of equity derivatives of US stocks.

In accordance with FXCM's obligation under this US tax regulation, 30% of all credited Dividend adjustments are withheld and passed on by FXCM to the IRS.¹

The daily dividend amount can be viewed from the simple dealing rates window in the Trading Station platform in the columns marked "Div S" (For sell/short positions) or "Div B" (For buy/long positions).

Please Note: Upcoming dividends are displayed in the counter currency of the instrument (For e.g if Netfix displayed "Div B" 0.23 that would be a credit of 0.23 USD per min trade size or if Barclays displayed "Div S" of -1.32 that would be a debit of 1.32 GBP per min trade size)

Dividends paid or earned on a specific position can be found in the account statement.

Account statements can be accessed via the "Report" button on the Trading Station platform (Desktop, Web, or Mobile) or by entering www.myfxcm.com using the login for the account you want to run the report on. From the menu, go to My Info->Reports. Fill out each field as desired, and then click on the blue Get Report button.
