  • Taker fee The fee charged when your order executes immediately against a resting order. It is the higher of the two fee sides on every venue, including this one.
  • Maker rebate A payment to traders whose maker volume passes a share threshold. At that point providing liquidity is a revenue line rather than a cost.
  • Post-only order An order flag, shown as ALO, that rejects the order if it would execute immediately. It guarantees you pay the maker fee rather than the taker fee.
