# Fees

## Perps — We Follow Hyperliquid's Fee Model

Fees are based on your rolling 14-day volume and are assessed at the end of each day in UTC. Sub-account volume counts toward the master account, and all sub-accounts share the same fee tier. 

There are separate fee schedules for perps vs spot. Perps and spot volume will be counted together to determine your fee tier, and spot volume will count double toward your fee tier. i.e., `(14d weighted volume) = (14d perps volume) + 2 * (14d spot volume)`

## Ostium Fees

On Ostium assets, fees are charged only when entering a position, unlike in Hyperliquid where they are charged when exiting a position as well. Thus, 10 bps of taker fees on Ostium is equivalent to 5 bps of taker fees on Hyperliquid, excluding liquidations.

Ostium's fees on entry / exit are:

* Crypto:
  * Maker / Taker: 3bps / 8.5bps
    * On Ostium, maker fees apply only if the leverage is at most 20x and if the trade reduces the OI imbalance. Otherwise, taker fees apply.
* Indices
  * All trades are taker; and the fees are 6.5 bps.
* FX
  * All trades are taker, the fees are 3 bps except for USD/MXN, which is 5 bps.
* Stocks
  * All trades are taker, the fees are 6.5 bps.
* Commodities
  * All trades are taker, and the fees vary by asset:

On all Ostium trades, Nika takes an additional builder fee following the previous fee schedule.
