3. PALM can be withdrawn 7 days afterwards under Trading Cycle in the back office.
Is there a waiting period? When can rewards be transferred?
The earned tokens can be transferred after a cycle is finished with a waiting period of 7 days.

Calculation of trading cycles

The following combination of fees paid and the position size determines the PALM rewards.
f0.7xP0.3=w=sf^{0.7}x P^{0.3} = \sum _{w=s}
(TWt)xw=sReward(\frac{T}{W_t}) x \sum _{w=s} \approx Reward
