Refreshing the Official Fee Page Before Any Size-Up Week
Install a Monday habit for Kenyan exchange users: reopen each venue’s official fee page, stamp the check in a weekly note, and block size-ups until that stamp exists for the venues you actually use.

Size-ups amplify whatever fee assumption you carry. A Kenyan trader who doubles size while quoting last month’s memory of maker and taker rows is making two decisions at once. This routine forces a fee-page refresh before any planned size-up week. You will not copy numbers into this article’s spirit; you will copy a process: open, stamp, then decide. Multi-venue users repeat the stamp per venue. Single-venue users still stamp, because memory drifts even on one screen.
Define what counts as a size-up week
Write your own definition in one sentence, such as any week where typical order size rises compared with the prior four weeks. The exact threshold is personal. What matters is that you link that definition to a mandatory fee-page reopen. If you cannot say whether this week is a size-up week, treat it as one and run the refresh anyway. Ambiguity should trigger caution, not a skip.
List the venues you might trade that week. Remove venues you will not open. A shorter list means fewer stamps and fewer chances to reuse a stale mental model. Keep the list inside your private note, not in a public channel where people debate fee tiers with unverifiable screenshots.
Stamp each venue with time and page title
For every venue on the list, open the official fee schedule and write the page title plus local timestamp. If the page shows tier tables, note only that tiers exist and that you viewed them, without pasting digits into group chats. Your stamp proves diligence. Digits belong on the live page when you need them.
If a venue app and website disagree in layout, prefer the path you will actually use to place orders and stamp that path. Layout differences are not a cue to average two rumors. They are a cue to stay with one official surface for the week’s trading.
Gate the size-up on completed stamps
Place a checkbox at the bottom of the note: size-up allowed only when every listed venue has a stamp from this week. Empty checkboxes mean you trade at prior size or not at all. This gate feels strict on busy Mondays, which is the point. Busy mornings are when people skip reading.
After the week ends, keep the stamp note for a short period so you can see whether size-ups correlated with skipped refreshes in earlier weeks. Patterns in your own behavior are more useful than generic advice threads. When a stamp is missing, write the skip explicitly so future-you cannot pretend the refresh happened.
Refuse unofficial fee explainers as substitutes
Social posts that simplify fee tiers are not stamps. If someone claims a special rate, return to the official page and to the venue’s own account view. When the official page is unclear, use official support with precise questions instead of accepting a stranger’s arithmetic. Clarity delays are cheaper than sizing on folklore. Keep screenshots undated out of your decision pile.

Scenario checkpoint
- Declare whether the coming week is a size-up week in one written sentence.
- List only the venues you will actually open that week.
- Stamp each venue with official fee-page title and local timestamp.
- Block size-ups until every listed venue has a fresh stamp.
- Ignore social fee explainers as substitutes for the official page.
