This result is in points, not currency. Your position size is already included, so to turn it into money multiply by the value of one point for 1.00 lot— not the point value for your full position, which would count the size twice. Some brokers quote swap directly in your account currency or as an annual percentage instead of points — check which your symbol uses.

Swap is debited or credited at the daily rollover (17:00 ET / 22:00 GMT). Hold a position past that moment and the rollover hits — even if you closed five minutes later.
Most brokers triple the swap on Wednesday rollover to cover the weekend. A small daily cost can stack up fast if you hold through Wed–Fri without realizing.
Long the higher-yielding currency, short the lower — and you may receive interest. Reverse it and you pay. Carry trades historically chase this dynamic, but rate cuts can flip the math overnight.
Brokers update rollover rates with central bank decisions and their own funding costs. The number that's a credit today can be a charge next month — verify before relying on a positive carry as part of the strategy.
