The default rule is '''No Commission'''. Other prebuilt Commission Rules are:
* '''0.01$ per Contract'''. Commission is set to $0.01 per contract regardless of the trade size.* '''0.01% per Contract'''. Commission is set to 0.01% of trade value regardless of the trade size.* '''1$ per Trade'''. Commission is set to $1 per trade regardless of the trade size.* '''Tiered per Month'''. Commission is set to 0.01% of trade value if trade size is less than 9999, 0.005% of trade value if trade size is between 10000 and 99999, 0.0025% of trade value if trade size is equal or higher than 100000. Every template parameter can be changed. In most cases default templates should be enough. However, if it is not the case custom templates can be created.
