Many traders haven't really understood the logic behind rebate commissions. In simple terms, a rebate is when the exchange refunds part of the trading fee you paid — the more frequently you trade, the higher the fees you generate, and the more you get back in the end.



So how is it calculated? Taking a position of 10,000 USDT contracts as an example: when executing a market order, both opening and closing require a 5 USDT fee each, totaling 10 USDT. If you switch to a limit order, the cost can be reduced, requiring only 2 USDT each, for a total of 4 USDT. The difference is quite significant.

The key point is that the entire mechanism is straightforward — how much is returned and how it’s returned are transparent and available for you to verify at any time. This honest rebate model can indeed save frequent traders a lot of money.

Limit orders are really the way to go. I used to lose a lot by always trading at market price. Only now do I realize what it means to get "scalped" after doing the math. Honestly, most exchanges are quite transparent about rebates, it just depends on whether you're willing to do the calculations yourself. Frequent traders can definitely save money here, but the prerequisite is that you're making a profit; otherwise, no matter how much rebate you get, it's useless.

Limit orders are the way to go; market orders are just giving money to the exchange.

Frequent trading is essentially cutting your own flesh; no matter how much commission you earn back, it can't fill the gap of losses.

"transparent" lol, let me pull up my spreadsheet real quick... actually, statistically speaking, most exchanges still obfuscate tier thresholds. the rebate mechanism here is taxonomically sound, but ngl the limit order fee structure feels like an evolutionary dead-end compared to maker-taker models. data suggests otherwise on most major venues, tbh
