### Total Spent on Fees

This is the total amount of SOL the wallet spent on fees when buying and selling tokens.

### Average Fee per Trade

This shows the average fee per transaction. It’s calculated by dividing the total fees by the number of trades.\
This number is useful if you're copytrading. Some traders use high fees to get their transactions confirmed faster.&#x20;

If you're always behind or transaction failing too much, it might be because your fee is too low. In this case, compare the fee level of other wallets and use something similar or slightly higher.<br>

### Tip:

If the Average Fee per Trade of the wallet is too high compared to others, it's probably a high-frequency trader or sniper. Avoid it.
