🧮Fees

Storm Trade users pay two types of fees:

  • 🔗 Network Fee — paid for executing transactions on the TON blockchain;

  • ⚙️ Storm Trade Protocol Fee — paid for using the platform and executing trades.


🔗 TON Blockchain Network Fee

The network fee consists of several components and is calculated based on various factors such as transaction size, content, network state, and execution time.

💡 Note: It's difficult to predict the exact amount of the network fee in advance. That's why many services temporarily reserve a higher amount and refund the unused portion after the transaction is complete.

On Storm Trade, approximately ~0.25 TON is deducted when opening a position. ~0.17 TON is usually refunded back to the user’s wallet after execution.

📐 Network Fee Calculation Formula:

TransactionFee=StorageFees+InFwdFees+ComputationFees+ActionFees+OutFwdFeesTransaction Fee = Storage Fees + In Fwd Fees + Computation Fees + Action Fees + Out Fwd Fees

⚙️ Storm Trade Protocol Fee

This fee is charged when opening and closing a position and is automatically deducted from the margin amount.

📊 Fee rates depend on the trading pair:

  • 💰 For USDT pairs — from 0.06% to 0.12%

  • 💎 For TON/NOT pairs — from 0.12% to 0.2%

  • 💵 For Currency pairs0.06%

  • 🪙 For Gold0.08%

💡 Example: If you open a 100 USDT position with 10x leverage in a USDT pair: 100 * 10 * 0.0012 = 1.2 USDT will be charged as a trading fee.


🕒 Funding

Funding refers to hourly payments between traders on opposite sides of the market, commonly used in perpetual futures trading.

🔁 How funding works:

  • If the majority opens long positions and funding turns positive:

    • 💸 Long traders pay, short traders receive.

  • If the market is dominated by short positions and funding turns negative:

    • 💸 Short traders pay, long traders receive.

📌 Funding helps maintain the balance between supply and demand in perpetual futures markets.


🏄 By understanding the fee structure, you can better manage your trades and reduce unnecessary costs on Storm Trade.
