Overview of trading fees
Overview
Trading fees are the costs you pay to buy, sell, or trade assets on an exchange. These fees are charged as a percentage of the transaction value.
There are two main types of trading fees:
Maker fees: These fees are charged to traders who place orders that add liquidity to the market (not instantly filled orders that are added to the book), such as limit orders.
Taker fees: These fees are charged to traders who remove liquidity from the market, such as market orders.
