NDF Products
NDF, Non-Deliverable Forward, is a foreign exchange forward contract on a notional amount where no physical settlement of the two currencies takes place at maturity. Instead a net cash settlement is made by one party to another based on the difference of the two FX rates. The settlement is done using a pre-determined currency, typically USD.
We pride ourselves in offering excellent NDFs trading experience in the market. With FXCM, you not only gain access to the top NDF pairs, but also the tools and support you need to navigate the market.

In the Trading Station you can see the value of a pip for each of your trades when entering a Market or Entry Order.
Under the Amount (K) field, you will see "Per pip". This will be the Pip value in your base currency.

For NDFs, the Finance Charge only apply to account for holding a position over the Rollover period when we roll over a contract into the next one. For open positions at the end of the rollover date (5pm EST), the Finance Charge will be applied.
