trading fee
Broker's cut percentage
A trading fee is a charge imposed when buying or selling financial assets—stocks, cryptocurrencies, commodities, or other securities.
Brokerages and exchanges collect these fees per transaction, either as flat amounts or percentages of the trade value: The platform charges a 0.5% trading fee on each purchase.
Competition has driven many stock brokerages to eliminate trading fees, though cryptocurrency exchanges typically still charge them.
