Commissions can significantly reduce profits, so it is important to understand their structure and ways to optimize them.

#### **Main Types of Commissions**

1. **Trading Commissions**

- **Maker (liquidity provider)** – usually 0.1-0.2%, sometimes 0% (Binance, Bybit).

- **Taker (liquidity taker)** – 0.1-0.6% depending on the exchange.

- **Volume Discounts** – reduction in commissions for high volumes (VIP levels).

2. **Withdrawal Fees**

- **Fiat** – 1-3% (bank transfers, cards).

- **Cryptocurrency** – depends on the network (ETH – $1-10, TRX – ~$0.1).

3. **Hidden Costs**

- **Slippage** – the difference between the expected and actual execution price.

- **Gas Price in DeFi** – commissions in Ethereum/BSC/Solana change dynamically.
