Hi @greenscorpio1000,  are you meaning overnight funding fees? They are usually a credit for short and debit for long but can be inverted depending on the components that make up the daily calc. See more here;

You talking about dividend adjustments on European indices? 

[Guest davidbrister]

yes i believe @greenscorpio1000 is refering to the dividend adjustments.

If you are looking at say the AUS200 index, and 1 or more of those listed companies in the index post a dividend, then  that shares tends to drop on the day of paying the dividend (not always but often), and so IG make an adjustment because if u had a sell position and the index drops u make extra profit from it so to make it even theres an adjustment as those that had a buy position just lost more due to the dividend drop in the price.

This page and video should be of help. Notably this isn't a cost, but a cash neutral adjustment.
