Multi-Currency Borkers (AUD)???

Mr_Doodi: what are the swap rates of interbankfx and cms for the major currencies?

MT4 brokers are marketmakers, and as such aggregate their own pricefeed out of whatever liquidity sources they have access too.

Data Source

Oanda's jokes

I have a list of oandas current swap and interestrates. AFAIK they are one of the best in this regard. Its in the common format of % per year with daily compounding tho, and not in pips per lot per day like in your comparison. I can post it if ...
