Listing Event Fee Structure
Overview
Aark's Listing Events, special trading windows for newly listed, higher-volatility pairs. Because these pairs can move faster and wider than normal markets, we apply a different open fee during the event period to support additional operational overhead and risk management required for high leverage trading.
Listing Event Open Fee
For Listing Event pairs, the Open Fee is:
Open Fee (Listing Event pairs): 0.04% per position
This is comparable to Hyperliquid’s perp taker fee range (often shown around ~0.045% at the base tier, with lower tiers reaching ~0.04% depending on volume/tiers).
This fee is applied when opening a position on eligible Listing Event markets.
fUSDC Discount Still Applies
Don’t forget: fUSDC reduces the open fee by 50%.
Effective Open Fee with fUSDC (Listing Event pairs): 0.02% Using fUSDC helps lower your real-cost entry fees, keeping high-volatility opportunities more cost-efficient.
(See the fUSDC page for details.)
Other Fees
Unless explicitly stated on the event card, all other fees follow the standard fee structure:
Execution Fee: A flat $0.6 execution fee is applied to open a position.
Close Fee: 20% of positive PnL is applied only when closing a profitable trade. If the trade results in a loss, no close fee is charged.
Liquidity Penalty (Liquidation Fee): 0.01%–0.02% of volume, based on leverage and MMR, when a position gets liquidated.
Example: Listing Event Open Fee in Action
Scenario: $100,000 position opened on a Listing Event pair.
Standard Listing Event Open Fee (0.04%) → $40
With fUSDC (50% reduction) → $20 effective open fee
