Standard US trades
The official US schedule, reviewed October 7, 2026, lists these coefficients for standard trades:
Fee = Θ × contracts × price × (1 − price)
| Component | Coefficient |
|---|---|
| Standard taker fee | 0.0695 |
| Standard maker rebate | −0.0125 |
For a single standard taker fill of 1,000 contracts at $0.50, the exact fee is $17.375, rounded to $17.38. The schedule specifies cent rounding with ties to even. Multiple-fill adjustments can affect the final charge.
October 7 product exceptions
The official notice removes combo maker rebates and sets the Table Tennis taker coefficient to 0.10 from 12:00 AM Eastern on October 7. Combos also use a separate taker curve. Some examples below that notice still show the prior combo maker rebate; verify the applicable schedule and execution report instead of copying those examples.
US and International incentives differ
US taker rebate tiers use prior-calendar-month taker volume. Do not substitute the International calculator’s rolling weighted-volume model. See the US fee schedule and International fee documentation.
