  • Spot forex providers earn money though spreads.

  • When someone signs a deal today but settlement is done on some another day is called a spot contract. Spot contract is similar to spot trading.
  • If trader keeps the currency overnight then he has to pay certain interest rate or rollover for keeping money with him for the whole night.

  • One difference is that in spot forex currency, future is quoted as the US dolor versus the currency while in others the trend is different. It is dolor verses currency.

Rollover:

It is the amount of money (interest rate) which trader had to pay, if he kept it for whole night. All the day traders fall under the spot forex. Every trader had to close his account at night. If he does not close his account at the end of the day, all his transactions are rolled over to the future or next trader who takes the charge after him.

Spot forex and forex future differs on one surface that forex future does not have any involvement in rollover. So, one can say spot forex is much better than forex future. It gives maximum rollover if held for a single day.
