Islamic account without killing scalp costs
Swap-free sounds irrelevant for scalpers until the broker’s Islamic terms quietly widen spreads or add admin fees that show up in a thirty-day cost log. I am not theological counsel — I am cost counsel. Faith requirements are non-negotiable for some; cost honesty should be too.
What I verify before switching profiles:
Anyone run a clean cost comparison Islamic versus standard on the same broker for London scalps?
If the Islamic book fails the cost test on my pairs, I do not “trade harder to compensate.” I change broker or profile — not risk — until the maths works without inventing turnover.

What I verify before switching profiles:
- True all-in cost on my pairs and sessions versus the standard raw account.
- Any storage or admin fee cadence that turns “swap-free” into “fee-delayed.”
- Whether gold and crosses are treated differently under the Islamic profile.
