💲Fee Breakdown
Opening Fee
A one-time opening fee is charged when a position is opened, designed to cover the cost of initiating trades without charging again on close. This fee is a flat rate for traditional (non-crypto) assets—e.g., a 4 bps fee, equivalent to 2 bps open + 2 bps close on other platforms—kept simple and predictable. More details here.
There is a $0.10 upfront oracle fee for closing positions manually, which is entirely refunded after the trade is executed. Automated close orders (SL/TP) do not incur such a fee.
All pairs are subject to a fixed opening fee, regardless of leverage or Open Interest skew.
Oracle Fee
A flat $0.10 fee charged whenever the protocol must fetch and attest an external price (oracle read) to process your action. This covers oracle and automation costs. For market opens, if the transaction reaches chain and fails for any reason, the oracle fee is still charged. The front end blocks most failure cases except slippage, so slippage is the most common reason you might see a fail with the fee consumed.

Liquidation Fee
If a position is liquidated, the trader’s remaining collateral is seized and paid out as a negative PnL to the Vault. More details here.
Price Impact
Orders execute at the underlying bid or ask price based on the order’s side and type, unless the pair has Dynamic Spreads enabled—in which case execution occurs at the Price-After-Impact, a dynamically adjusted price that reflects real-time liquidity conditions and short-term order flow balance.
