Here is what you need to know:
💱 1. *Trading Fees*
- Charged by exchanges (Binance, MEXC, etc.)
- Typically between *0.1% and 0.25%* per transaction
- Two types: *maker* (you place an order) and *taker* (you execute an existing order)
🔁 2. *Withdrawal Fees*
- Paid to transfer cryptos to an external wallet
- Vary according to the *network* (e.g. TRC-20 = cheap, ERC-20 = expensive)
🧠 3. *Network Fees (or gas fees)*
- Paid to validators (miners/stakers)
- Very high on Ethereum (ERC-20), low on Tron (TRC-20) or BNB Smart Chain
💼 4. *Hidden Fees*
- Some brokers or wallet apps include fees in the *displayed price* for buying/selling
✅ Tips to reduce fees:
- Use *cheaper networks* (TRC-20, BSC)
- Keep your trades on the same exchange if possible
- Use *native tokens* for discounts (e.g. BNB on Binance).
