Terms used on this page
- Total trading cost (all-in cost)
- Total trading cost (all-in cost) is the selected-side cost of one order at a given size: the fee plus half of the spread plus the price impact, in bps and USD.
- Bid-ask spread
- The spread is the gap between the best bid and the best ask, in basis points (bps) of the mid price. A market order pays half of the spread.
- Slippage (price impact)
