I have been reading about using gdax to avoid coinbase fees. I want to make sure I do this properly before trying. If I understand it correctly, I buy the btc on coinbase. When I go to gdax it will automatically be in my account. I can then withdraw to my electrum and not be hit with the coinbase fees. Is this correct? It seems to simple to me.
Transfer USD to Coinbase, it will take about a week. Then transfer to Gdax and place a limit order for your crypto. Then send to an external wallet.
Total fees: $0
