Carrying Costs?

Does the cost to keep a transaction open -say overnight, vary depending on the contract size? I want to play 10k lots long term and I am worried about the carrying costs eating all my profits.

How do you calculate the carrying costs and does it depend on the contract size?

Thanks!!!

Carry (positive and negative) is directly proportional to position size.

I saw about 33$ per NZD/JPY per about $760, and I could be wrong, but that’s pointless if risk aversion is high and buying USDs. Check out the volatility on monthly charts over the last ten years and then decide if a carry trade is worthwhile in this environment. Which pair will you use?
