Basis trading with CoinEx as one leg
A funding rate arbitrage trade holds a long perpetual on one exchange and a short on another. Using CoinEx as one leg, factor in its 0.05% taker fee (or 0.03% maker) when opening and closing that side of the trade: it directly reduces the net spread you capture.
CoinEx settles funding every 8 hours. Compare its historical rate against the other exchange's to estimate the annualized yield before committing capital to both legs.
CoinEx fee structure
CoinEx charges maker fee 0.03% and taker fee 0.05% on perpetual futures. Maximum available leverage is 100×. This calculator pre-fills these defaults so you get accurate results without needing to look up the fee schedule. If you are on a VIP tier with discounted fees, adjust the fee fields accordingly.
Maker orders (limit orders that add liquidity) cost less than taker orders (market orders that remove liquidity). On CoinEx, using limit orders for both entry and exit can reduce your total fee cost significantly compared to market orders.
