# Degen Mode Dynamic Fee

PancakeSwap Perpetuals Degen Mode uses a dynamic fee model. This fee is designed to charge fees by PnL and protect users from losses.\
**How does it work?**

$$
\text{closeFeeRate} = \max\left(\frac{\text{pnl} \cdot \text{shareRate}}{\text{notional}}, \text{closeMinRate}\right)
$$

where:

* Pnl is the profit or loss on the position
* shareRate is the share rate, which is the percentage of the notional that is paid in fees (15% as default)
* Notional is the amount of money that is used to open the position
* closeMinRate is the minimum closing fee rate, which is the lowest amount that you can pay to close a position (0.03% as default)

\
**Example:**

If you have a position with a profit of $100, a share rate of 15%, and a notional of $600, then the closing fee rate would be:

Closing fee rate = Max(100 \* 15% / 600, 0.03%) = 0.03%

In this case, the closing fee rate would be 0.03%, the minimum closing fee rate.<br>

Note:

The execution fee will only be charged when a position is opened. It is set at 0.3 USD (BNB Chain)/ 0.2 USD (Arbitrum)/ 0.01 USD (opBNB)/ 0.3 USD (Base), similar to what is being charged when trading classic perpetual trading pairs. There is no opening position fee.

In the event of liquidation, the 90% liquid lost rate includes close fee.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://pancakeswap.gitbook.io/pancakeswap/trade/perpetual-trading/perpetual-trading-v2/degen-mode/degen-mode-dynamic-fee.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
