- Futures fees are charged on the position size (notional), not your margin: a 1,000 USDT position at 10x uses 100 margin but pays fees on 1,000.
- Standard taker fees: BingX 0.05%, OKX 0.05%, Bybit 0.055%, KuCoin 0.06%.
- Funding is paid every 8 hours on most perpetuals and can be a cost or an income.
- Opening and closing with market orders on 1,000 costs about 1.00 at 0.05%.
