# Fee\&Slippage

## Fee

Venkate OptionX trading requires no transaction fees or gas fees, allowing users to trade without additional costs.

## Slippage

To prevent imbalances between long and short positions caused by rapid, repeated orders, Venkate OptionX implements a tiered slippage system based on the long-to-short ratio. The specifics are outlined in the following table:

| Long/Short | Open Direction | Slippage                                       |
| ---------- | -------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |

| 3:1        | Long           | 0.004                                          |
