Composition of Trading Fees

Trading fees are typically determined by the following core elements:

1. **Order Type:**

* **Maker Fee vs. Taker Fee:** This is the most common distinction.

* **Maker:** Your order is not immediately matched with an existing order in the market but enters the order book (for example, if you set a buy limit order below the market price or a sell limit order above the market price). You are providing liquidity to the market. Typically, **maker fees are lower than taker fees, and some platforms even offer negative fees (i.e., rewards for you).**

* **Taker:** Your order is immediately matched with an existing order in the order book (for example, a market order, or your limit order matches an existing order immediately). You are removing liquidity from the market. **Taker fees are usually higher than maker fees.**

* **Why is there this distinction?** Exchanges encourage users to provide liquidity (makers) to improve market depth and attract more traders.

* **Impact of Different Order Types:**

* **Market Order:** Almost always **taker**, as they will immediately match with existing orders in the order book.

* **Limit Order:** Most of the time **maker**, but if your limit order perfectly matches the best existing price in the order book and executes immediately, it may also become a **taker**.

2. **Tiered Fee Structure / VIP Levels:**

* Most large exchanges employ a tiered fee rate system. The **larger your trading volume (usually referring to the cumulative trading volume over the past 30 days)** or **the more platform tokens you hold**, the lower your trading fee rate will be.

* For example, Binance's VIP levels are categorized based on trading volume and BNB holdings. The higher the VIP level, the lower the maker and taker fees.

3. **Trading Pair:**

* Certain trading pairs may have different fee rates. For example, some exchanges may charge lower fees for stablecoin trading pairs or charge zero fees for specific promotional trading pairs.
