Title: Bitstamp fees - how are they calculated? Post by: wilfried on April 19, 2013, 10:30:57 PM Hy,
I dont get the maths, please help ;) According to https://www.bitstamp.net/fee_schedule/ for trades <$500 fee should be 0.5% I currently made some trades <5$ and always got a fee of 0.03! 5/100/2=0.025 Ok, if they only use 2 digits behind comma, it makes sense - its 0.03 So trades from 5 to 9 $ could have a fee of 0.03. but my trades where from 4.39$ to 4.53$ 4.5/100/2=0.0225 Rounded thats 0,02. Not 0.03. thats a difference of 50%.... Is this some using of float....? (little joke). How to calc the fee? Second, do I get it right: when selling they substract 0.05% from the income - when buying you buy order money minus 0.05% ? I saw the limit order mask only accepts two digits behind comma for $ amounts. As for a trade once executed, how many digits are computed? thx Title: Re: Bitstamp fees - how are they calculated? Post by: shkiser on April 25, 2013, 06:49:50 PM Im also interested. Im confused by the Fee Schedule myself. I did a test transaction, sold .5 btc at $58.39 After transferring the money to my bank I was left with $43.09 thats one heft FEE! Id like to sell about 20 bitcoins but I have no idea what kind of fee to expect. If they took 30% from that transaction I would be pissed !
