What this estimate does—and does not—cover
This is an educational constant-notional estimate for a linear contract, not a quote or a suitability recommendation. Entry and exit use the same USD notional. Actual fees depend on contract, venue, account tier, execution and changing position value. Inverse contracts may use a different calculation.
Perpetual funding is a transfer between long and short positions, not simply a trading fee. Whether you pay or receive depends on your position side and funding rate; intervals and rates vary. Enter the signed rate applicable to your position for the assumed events. Expiry futures may not have periodic funding.
This worksheet excludes price gains or losses, liquidation, margin requirements, borrowing, conversion, withdrawal charges and changing funding rates. Leverage can magnify losses; a low estimated fee does not make a trade safe.
Funding mechanism: Binance educational documentationMechanism reference only; not evidence of local access or current venue fees.
