Islamic Trading Accounts
Online trading platforms allow you to access the CFD markets 24 hours a day, and give you access to a variety of instruments – foreign exchange, commodities, shares, bonds, ETFs, currency options and more. Some traders engage in day trading, which means keeping positions open for a few hours or less.
Other traders, however, employ trades with a longer scope and keep their positions open for more than 24 hours. When you keep a position open overnight, you will need to pay a rollover fee.
This kind of fee goes against Riba principles of Sharia law. For that reason, we offer an Islamic account to be used by our Islamic clients, such accounts may keep positions open for a maximum of 5 days without incurring the rollover fee. Positions open for longer than 5 days will incur the fee.
To solve this issue, brokers like Today Markets offer a special ‘Islamic account’. This account type is similar to a regular one, with one key difference; it is not subjected to any special fees or interest, which sits well with the finance principles of Sharia law.
The Sharia law dictates that the lender must share in the borrower’s risk. In non-Islamic accounts, the risk falls exclusively on the lender. In Islamic eyes, this is considered exploitative and wasteful. Today Markets is fully committed to providing its traders with a variety of trading solutions to fit their needs and personal requirements.
