All fees on the platform are presented in the [Fee Structure](https://cryptoindex-1.gitbook.io/cryptoindex-whitepaper/platform-features/fees-structure) section. This section will discuss in detail the calculation of entry/exit and management fees, which are paid in INDX tokens:

* <mark style="color:blue;">**Entry/Exit Fees:**</mark> The user pays a fee when entering/exiting the index. This one-time fee ranges from 0.5-5.0% of the position size as determined by the index creator.
* <mark style="color:blue;">**Optional Management Fee:**</mark> The index creator can introduce a monthly management fee of 0.0-5.0% per annum of the position size or 0.0-20.0% of the profit. This fee is not mandatory and is at the discretion of the index creator.

Below is an example of calculating the accrual of fee:

* Index configuration: The entry/exit fee is 0.5%, and the management fee is 2% per annum from the position size.\
  Suppose the user Bill enters the index with an amount of $1,000. Assuming the index grows by 5% every month, Bill stays in the index for 1.5 months.

| Month       | Action                       | Change of holdings | Balance     | Fee                     | Fee Amount |
