Introduction
The Swap-Free Add-On removes overnight swap charges from your account. In place of variable swap rates, a fixed daily admin fee applies after a 3-day grace period per position. The add-on costs 10% of your challenge fee and must be selected at checkout.

How it works
Each night at 21:59 UTC (22:59 during US DST), one day is counted against the grace period, or the admin fee is charged. For each position:
The first 3 days are free. This is the grace period.
From day 4 onwards, the admin fee is charged for every subsequent day the position remains open.
The admin fee is deducted directly from your account balance.
The grace period applies per position. If you close a position and reopen it, the new position starts with a fresh 3-day grace period. Unused grace period days from the previous position do not carry over.
