  Sure! Interactive brokers calculate the futures commissions for digital assets based on several factors. These factors include the size of the trade, the type of digital asset being traded, and the current market conditions. They may also take into account the liquidity of the asset and any additional fees or charges associated with trading futures contracts. The exact formula used to calculate the commissions may vary, but it generally takes into consideration these key factors to ensure fair and competitive pricing for traders.

  Interactive brokers have a transparent and standardized commission structure for trading futures contracts on digital assets. The commissions are typically based on a percentage of the notional value of the contract. This means that the larger the trade, the higher the commission. However, there may be volume discounts available for high-volume traders. It's important to note that interactive brokers may also charge additional fees, such as exchange fees or regulatory fees, which are passed on to the trader.
