The scope of Fees & Trading Costs starts with exchange trading fees and includes maker taker pricing and deposit fee policies when they materially shape the same question. The category can accommodate reporting or analysis of withdrawal fee structures, spread and slippage costs, and fiat conversion fees, especially when hidden platform charges or volume discount tiers changes the interpretation. Broad platform selection belongs under Exchange Comparisons; this category isolates maker-taker fees, spreads, withdrawal charges, funding costs, conversion costs, tiers, rebates, and total execution expense.
