FEES Schedule 6, table 6.1 (Digital Asset Trading Facility): no rule for an average daily trading value of exactly 500 000 USD

The variable fee is "not applicable" where the average daily trading value is "less than 500 000 USD" and is the greater of the trading levy and 5 000 USD where it is "more than 500 000 USD". A value of exactly 500 000 USD is covered by no branch, while the outcomes on either side differ (0 USD and at least 5 000 USD for the quarter).

Proposed correction

Please include an average daily trading value of exactly USD 500,000 in one band only.
