How to pay less in fees with a bot

  1. Use limit orders when you can: on all five exchanges the maker pays the same as or less than the taker.
  2. Paying the fee with the exchange's token (BNB, MX or BGB) lowers it by 10% to 25%.
  3. In the DearmasTrader lab you enter your exchange's maker and taker fee and see how much it takes from the result before risking anything.
