Where do I find my commissions?
You can easily locate your commissions through R|Trader Pro. Simply follow these steps:
Sign in to your Rithmic account using your username and password, then navigate to the "Trader’s Dashboard" section within the platform.
2. On the second column, right-click your name and select "View Risk Parameters" from the menu.
3. Within this window, you'll find a clear listing of all commission fills charged by instrument type. This covers buys, sells, and maximum order values.
Just a heads up, be sure to factor all commissions and fees into your risk management. These costs are included in your daily losses, so don't let them exceed the set limit in your account.
