Today we must talk about that "hidden cost" in trading that is easily overlooked——transaction fees!

The essence of contracts is spot trading with leverage, but the fees really have "hidden intricacies". On the surface, the order placement fee is 0.02% and the market order fee is 0.05%, which seems low, right? But once leverage comes into play, it adds up! Let me give you a real example:

Assuming you start with a principal of 100 and use 100 times leverage (which is equivalent to directly controlling a position of 10,000), opening and closing at market price. The fees are calculated based on the position amount—when opening a position with a market order, 10,000 × 0.05% is deducted, which equals 5, and another 5 is deducted for closing, so that's a total of 10 right there! This doesn't even account for other costs, and the transaction fees alone take up 10% of the principal!

In comparison, aren't contract fees ridiculously higher than spot trading fees? Even more heartbreaking is that many people are completely unaware of the fee reduction policies and end up spending extra money unnecessarily~

If you're a high-frequency trader or always feel that transaction fees are "painful", you must understand the fee reduction options; saving a little is still saving, #手续费返佣
