Different exchanges have different trading views. And there is no “this overview is the best”-view. You should yourself determine which trading view that suits you the best. What the views normally have in common is that they all show the order book or at least par<t of the order book, a price chart of the chosen crypto and order history. They normally also have buy and sell-boxes. Before you choose an exchange, try to have a look at the trading view so that you can see that it feels right to you. The below is a picture of the trading view at Hydax:

Hydax Trading View

This trading platform doesn’t charge different fees between takers and makers. Instead, the exchange has a so called “flat” fee model. They offer a flat trading fee of 0.20%. The global industry average has for a long time arguably been 0.25%. Today, however, we are seeing more and more exchanges moving to lower trading fees. Examples of lower such fees is 0.10% and 0.15%. New industry averages are accordingly being established. But for now, the trading fees at Hydax are competitive enough.

Hydax also offers contract trading. With respect to their contract trading, takers are charged 0.06% and makers pay 0.02%. According to the latest empirical study on the subject, the industry average contract taker fees were 0.063% and the industry average contract maker fees were 0.018%. Consequently, Hydax's contract trading fees are below the industry average for takers but slightly above for makers.

To our understanding, Hydax does not charge any fees of their own when you withdraw crypto from your account at the platform. Accordingly, the only fee you have to think about when withdrawing are the network fees. The network fees are fees paid to the miners of the relevant crypto/blockchain, and not fees paid to the exchange itself. Network fees vary from day to day depending on the network pressure.

Generally speaking, to only have to pay the network fees should be considered as below global industry average when it comes to fee levels for crypto withdrawals. 

At this exchange, they do not accept any deposits of fiat currency to the actual exchange. However, to the OTC-function, you can purchase crypto from other people advertising sales. The available purchase methods in the OTC-function are bank card, Alipay or WeChat Pay.

If you prefer to deposit fiat currency and you don’t want to use an OTC-function or any of the available deposit methods mentioned above, you need another exchange. You can find one by using our Exchange Finder.

The platform promotes as one of its main strengths that it has multiple distributed nodes, strong risk control models and, finally, separated cold and hot wallets.
