Trading Fees and Losses

Storm Trade works like a massive online trading platform where thousands of people bet on whether crypto prices will go up or down using leverage (borrowed money to amplify their bets).

How it works:

  • Traders pay fees on every trade

  • Studies show 70-90% of traders lose money when using leverage

  • Your money provides liquidity that enables this trading activity

  • When traders lose (which happens frequently), those losses go back to the liquidity pool

  • You earn from both trading fees and trader losses

Why this works: With leverage, a trader with $100 can control a $1,000 position. If the market moves just 10% against them, they lose their entire $100. These losses, plus all the trading fees, get shared among liquidity providers like you.

Example: A platform processes $100 million in daily trades at 0.2% fees = $200,000 in daily fees. Combined with trader losses, liquidity providers typically earn around 5-10% annually from these pools.

Through FIVA: You can access Storm Trade's USDT and TON pools with fixed returns instead of volatile daily fluctuations. FIVA smooths out the ups and downs, giving you predictable income from this trading activity.
