WEEX TradFi fees consist of two main components: Trading fees and funding fees. Understanding how these fees work helps you better assess trading costs, optimize holding periods, and make more informed trading decisions.

Fee structure

Trading fees

When you open or close a position on WEEX TradFi, a trading fee is charged based on the position's value and the applicable fee rate.

Calculation:
Trading fee = position value × fee rate

Note: Fee rates may vary depending on your user tier, trading product, market liquidity, or promotional events. Refer to the order page, fee details, or latest platform announcements for the actual rates.

Example

If you open a 10,000 USDT position at a 0.01% fee rate:

Trading fee = 10,000 × 0.01% = 1 USDT

Trading fees are calculated and charged separately at both entry and exit, based on actual execution.

Funding fees

Funding fees are a key holding cost, settled periodically based on platform rules.

How funding fees work

• Positive funding rate: Longs pay shorts 
• Negative funding rate: Shorts pay longs 

Funding fees aren't charged by the platform—they're exchanged between longs and shorts to maintain market balance.

Why funding fees matter?

Short-term positions often don't cross funding intervals, so the impact of funding fees is minimal.

For mid to long-term positions, overnight holds, or swing trading, funding fees can directly affect overall holding costs and final returns.

Note:
Funding fees may still be settled during certain traditional market off-hours, depending on platform rules, and holding costs may continue to accrue. Be sure to check settlement rules before holding positions overnight or across periods.

How to check actual fees?

During WEEX TradFi trading, fee rates, funding rates, settlement times, and related rules are typically displayed in real time in the following places:

•  Order page: Real-time fee rate reference
•  Futures details page: Trading pair specifications
•  Fee page: Platform-wide fee standards
•  Latest announcements: Fee updates or limited-time events

As rules may vary by product, market, and time period. Refer to the trading page for the actual fees.

Summary

On WEEX TradFi, trading costs mainly come from two sources:
Trading fees when opening and closing positions, and funding fees settled when holding based on market conditions.

If you're a short-term trader, focus on how trading fees impact your entry and exit costs.

If you prefer swing or longer-term positions, pay closer attention to how funding fees affect your overall returns.

Before trading, review fee rates and settlement rules to better manage positions and timing.
