# Fees

### Trading (Open & Close) Fees

Open and close fees on Unlimited Leverage are dynamically calculated depending on <mark style="color:blue;">**your monthly trading volume**</mark> (for open and increase position size). As your volume increases, the fees decrease, so with continued usage, you pay less for each trade.

#### <mark style="color:blue;">**Fees Distribution**</mark>

1. Supply: <mark style="color:blue;">70%</mark> - To facilitate innovation behind the orderbook / gaslesss trading model.

<mark style="color:blue;">60%</mark> - Liquidity Providers

<mark style="color:blue;">10%</mark> - Execution Fund

2. Protocol: <mark style="color:blue;">30%</mark> - To facilitate early stage growth in the protocol and encourage a wave of skilled, enthusiastic community contributors to accelerate product iterations and wider ecosystem and community growth.

<mark style="color:blue;">18%</mark> - $UWU stakers

<mark style="color:blue;">12%</mark> - Contributor Fund

Overtime this 12% will be reduced and UWU stakers will receive the full 30% fees that are directed to the protocol.

### Funding Fees

Funding fees are a common feature on trading platforms, designed in order to **incentivize traders to take the less populated (by open interest) side of a trade**. In other words, if **Longs > Shorts in open interest**, then longs will pay shorts a funding fee. That same is true vice versa. This **encourages&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**healthy market participation**</mark> which drives volume.

Funding fees are paid **every block and are pro rata to the position size**.

### Borrow Fees

A Borrow fee is another common fee applied to trading platforms, and is **applied to all open positions**. This fee is implemented to <mark style="color:blue;">**cover the cost of upkeep of the position**</mark>, and is deducted from the collateral **every block**.

Initially, **Unlimited Leverage will set the&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**Borrow Fee to 0%**</mark>, and will adjust the value depending on the LP Performance.  \
\
LPs receive **100%** of the **borrow fees**.
