  One way to avoid fees when purchasing cryptocurrencies on GDAX is to use limit orders instead of market orders. By placing a limit order, you can set the price at which you want to buy the cryptocurrency, and if the market price reaches that level, your order will be executed. This way, you can avoid paying the fees associated with market orders. However, keep in mind that there is a chance your order may not be filled if the market price does not reach your specified level.

  Another way to avoid fees on GDAX is to take advantage of the maker-taker fee structure. If you place a limit order that adds liquidity to the order book, you will be considered a maker and will pay lower fees or even no fees at all. On the other hand, if you place a market order that takes liquidity from the order book, you will be considered a taker and will pay higher fees. So, by using limit orders and adding liquidity, you can minimize or eliminate fees when purchasing cryptocurrencies on GDAX.
