I opened a long position at $325 and set a limit order at $360. I used 1 btc and 10:1 leverage how did I only end up profiting 0.1 btc. Can someone explain? (Used magnr exchange)

and no , they are not a scam as far as I know . If I remember right they are both saving (you earn 2.18% interest a year or something) and trading as-well and they was known as BTC.sx before .

How long did you have the position open?

For a trade of 10 BTC, the open fee is .045 BTC, the close fee is 0.045 BTC and the daily fee is 0.03 BTC.

If you bought 10 btc at $325 and sold it at $360, then your profit before fees is $350 or 0.972 BTC. If you held the position for 26 days, then total daily fee would be 0.78 BTC. Subtract the 0.09 BTC opening and closing fees and your profit is 0.102 BTC
