The spread is the gap between buy and sell prices. Here, the 1.50% spread is 15× larger than the 0.10% advertised fee, and you pay it on every trade.
Only €0 fills at €101.50. The remaining €0 executes at prices up to €101.50. Therefore you pay on average: €101.50.
The gap between €101.50 and your effective price €101.50 is slippage: the extra cost of insufficient liquidity. This is your illiquidity premium.
With a €0 order, the true cost is 16× the advertised fee. This is what "zero-fee" platforms don't show you.
