There is a swap arbitrage strategy which works with using 2 different brokers, where one broker pay you good swap and the other is nearly swap free.
For example IC Markets and Octafx is a good combination, go short in USDMXN at IC Markets and long in USDMXN at Octafx, that way you open a hedge and you get every day swap. Here is a livestream where somebody trade that:
Now for every broker the trades does look like a normal swingtrade but the brokers also have rules which they swap arbitrage is not allowed, but they never show me a clear example what or how swap arbitrage looks for them.
Can they tell me that i do make swap arbitrage just because i want to open a short in USDMXN which stay open many days?
I want to understand what the brokers can do against this strategy or if they can not do anything, because some people tell me they use this strategy without problems but the brokers say it is not allowed, i want to find out what is true.
