The swap is the interest charged or paid for keeping a position open overnight. It depends on the interest rate difference between the two currencies of the pair and is applied at the end of the session.
Why it matters: in long term trades the swap can add or subtract a significant part of the result. Some traders take advantage of it with carry trade strategies.
