Many newcomers who just entered the market only focus on the fluctuations on the K-line chart but ignore a "black hole" that can silently swallow your principal—trading fees.


As a trader focused on short-term and high leverage trading, today I want to talk about a factor that many people overlook but can determine the survival of your account: rebate commissions.
📉 Case analysis: With the same 100x leverage, where is the difference?
Let's look at a real trading scenario:
Suppose you are a super short-term hunter, with a principal of 1000 U, using 100x leverage to operate, opening and closing 5 times a day.
• Without rebates:
The trading fee per open/close (calculated at an average of 0.05%) is about 100 U. Five trades a day, totaling 500 U in fees.
This means: even if your win rate is 50%, your account could be wiped out by fees in just two days.
• With 20% - 40% rebate:
If you have a 30% fee rebate, with the same operations, you can recover 150 U daily.
Over a month, just from rebates, this income can reach up to 4,500 U. This not only covers your trading costs but can even serve as a "recovery fund" when you are losing money.
💡 Why do KOLs emphasize rebates?
1. Increased tolerance for errors: For high-frequency traders, rebates can significantly lower your breakeven point.
2. Capital protection: In volatile markets, rebates are often the only positive cash flow for your account.
3. Long-term perspective: Trading is not a one-time deal; the compound effect of fees is very impressive.
🛡 Advice for newcomers
As a newcomer to the market, I recommend that while establishing your trading system (such as SMC or Hunting System), you must check whether your account has a reasonable rebate configuration.
Don’t let the money earned from painstaking chart analysis all go to pay fees.
