Inverse Perpetual & Futures Contract
1. Trading Fee
|
|
|
|
Formula
Trading Fee = Order Value × Trading Fee Rate
Order Value = Quantity / Executed Price
Example
Trader A buys 10,000 BTCUSD contracts using a Market order.
Trader B sells 10,000 BTCUSD contracts using a Limit order.
Assuming that the execution price is $8,000:
Taker fee for Trader A = 10,000/8,000 × 0.055% = 0.0006875 BTC
Maker fee for Trader B = 10,000/8,000 × 0.02% = 0.00025 BTC
Hence, upon execution, Trader A will pay a 0.0006875 BTC Taker's fee and Trader B will pay a 0.00025 BTC Maker’s fee.
2. Settlement Fee (Only applicable to Inverse Futures Contract)
All Futures contracts have an expiration date (also known as a settlement date), and due to this product characteristic, all Futures positions will be entirely closed by the specified settlement date. Therefore, when traders decide not to manually close their position, at the point of reaching the settlement date, the system will automatically settle the position. In the process, a 0.05% settlement fee will be collected by the platform.
Formula
Settlement Fee = Order Value × Settlement Fee Rate
Order Value = Quantity / Executed Price
Example
A trader holds a BTCUSD0331 Futures position of 10,000 quantities at $20,000. He decided not to manually close the position and hold the position until the settlement date. On Mar 31, 2023, at 08:00:00 UTC, the system will automatically close and settle his position.
Assuming that the settlement price is $20,600:
Settlement fee = (10,000/20,000) x 0.05% = 0.00025 BTC
Hence, upon the settlement date, the trader will need to pay 0.00025BTC of the settlement fee.
Note: Please be informed that settlement fees are fixed (regardless of your VIP level) and will not be subject to any fee discounts or rebates unless otherwise specified in the campaign's Terms and Conditions.
