Incentive Trading Fees or Reward

 

There is a fee or reward in addition to the Base Trading Fee described above when using the Trend Token portfolio to buy, sell, or swap. 

 

The fee will apply when a trader brings the actual allocations farther away from the desired allocation:

  1. User buys a token from the Trend Token portfolio when it desires more of it
  2. User sells a token to the Trend Token portfolio when it desires less of it


 

The reward will apply when a trader brings the actual allocation closer to the desired allocation:

  1. User buys a token when from the Trend Token portfolio when it desires less of it
  2. User sells a token to the Trend Token portfolio when it desires more of it

 

The goal of this incentive model is to introduce an arbitrage opportunity and thereby reward users for bringing the balances in the Trend Token portfolio closer to the desired allocations set by the dual-momentum trading bot. For more information on this system visit: _________________

Performance Fees

 

Each Trend Token portfolio has a performance fee which is accrued every block when the Trend Token price makes a new all time high price.

 

TREND5 performance fee: 10% 



 

Calculation

The performance fees are calculated based on the new all time high price and the last all time high price of the Trend Token 

 

The simple calculation is as follows: 

 

Trend Token Fee = (current price - previous all time high price) * performanceFee

                            = ($3.00 - $1.50) * 10%

                            = $0.15

 

Target Price = current price - Trend Token Fee

                    = $3.00 - $0.15 

                    = $2.85

 

Final Trend Token Fee = Trend Token Supply * (current price/target price - 1)

                                     = 1 000 000 * ($3.00/$2.85 - 1)

                                     = 1 000 000 * 0.052632

                                     = 52 632 

 

In this example there will be 52 632 Trend Tokens minted and added to reserves from which the manager may redeem at any time. The manager may agree to use a percentage, such as 50%, to buy back and burn XTT from the open market. 

 

Redemption

 

As performance and trading fees are earned, they are sent to the Trend Token reserves. The manager may redeem these fees at any time and they are sent to the feeRecipient wallet address.
