Maker–Taker Volume Fee Budget Calculator

Estimate commissions across separate maker and taker executed volumes.

Your inputsBrowser calculationCSV export

With hypothetical maker volume of 6,000 USD at 0.02% and taker volume of 4,000 USD at 0.06%, maker fees are 1.20 USD and taker fees are 2.40 USD. Total fees are 3.60 USD on 10,000 USD of volume, giving an effective fee rate of 0.036%.

What this helps you check

A single average fee rate can hide how much volume paid each liquidity rate. This worksheet calculates maker and taker commissions separately, combines them and reports a volume-weighted effective rate. You supply the applicable rates; the page does not publish a current exchange fee tier.

The estimate applies only to the supplied rates and volumes. It is not a ledger reconciliation and does not infer the asset in which commissions were paid. If combined volume is zero, the effective rate is Not defined, preserving the distinction between no activity and a measured zero rate.

The example is invented to demonstrate the method. It is not a current market quote, a provider's fee schedule or verified trading performance.

How the worksheet works

  1. maker_fee=maker_volume*maker_rate_pct/100; taker_fee=taker_volume*taker_rate_pct/100.
  2. total_fees=maker_fee+taker_fee.
  3. effective_rate_pct=100*total_fees/(maker_volume+taker_volume); if combined volume=0 display 'Not defined'.
  4. Signed rates are allowed to represent explicitly supplied rebates.

The estimate applies only to the supplied rates and volumes. It is not a ledger reconciliation and does not infer the asset in which commissions were paid. If combined volume is zero, the effective rate is Not defined, preserving the distinction between no activity and a measured zero rate.

Boundaries to keep in view

  • Every fill side's volume should be counted once.
  • Rates are hypothetical user inputs, not current provider fees or promised discounts.
  • No tier achievement, market-making profit or execution-quality inference.

Compare resources for this task

Commission planning needs a rate source, executed volume and a clear maker/taker definition. The table separates provider references, record workflows and spreadsheet software so an estimated budget is not confused with an actual fee ledger.
