How can we help?
Here's how we calculate the quarterly performance bonus:
If you earn 1,000 USD in January, 2,000 USD in February, and 3,000 USD in March (first quarter of the year):
- Three-month total: 1,000 USD + 2,000 USD + 3,000 USD = 6,000 USD
- Resulting Platinum+ bonus: 10% of 6,000 USD = 600 USD
- Bonus payout: Credited at the start of the next quarter (in April)
Formula (per side)
Commission = (Traded volume in USD) × (Commission rate) ÷ 100,000
To calculate traded volume in USD:
Traded volume in USD = (Volume in lots) × (Contract size) × (Execution price) × (Conversion rate to USD)
Example calculation with BTC/USD
Let’s say:
- You traded 1 lot of BTC/USD
- Each contract = 1 Bitcoin
- The current price is 60,000 USD
- Conversion rate = 1 (since it’s in USD)
- The commission rate (one side) is $10 per 100,000 USD traded
How to calculate:
1. Find the traded volume in USD:
1 (lot) × 1 (contract size) × 60,000 (price) × 1 (USD rate) = 60,000 USD
So, the total traded volume = 60,000 USD
2. Apply the commission formula:
Commission= (60,000 × 10) ÷ 100,000 = 6 USD
So, $6 commission per side
3. If you open and close the trade (round trade):
6×2 = 12
$12 total commission
The quarterly performance bonus is paid in the following quarter.
Example:
If you qualify in Q1 (January to March), your bonus will be paid in April.
You won’t receive the quarterly performance bonus if either of the following happens:
- You drop below the Platinum tier within that calendar quarter.
- You earn zero commission in any month of that quarter.
Your quarterly performance bonus calculation will reset at the start of the next quarter.
