Calculator
- Net profit / loss
- +97.90 USDT
- Return (ROI)
- +9.79%
- Coins
- 10.0000
- Total fees
- 2.10 USDT
Profit before fees: +100.00 USDT. Taxes are not included.
How it works
- Coins = investment ÷ entry price.
- Profit before fees = coins × price change (sell − buy for a long, entry − exit for a short).
- Fees = fee % of the entry value + fee % of the exit value.
- Net result = profit before fees − fees. ROI = net result ÷ investment.
Example
Invest 1,000 USDT at 100 and sell at 110 with a 0.1% fee. You hold 10 coins, make 100 USDT before fees, pay about 2.10 USDT in fees, and keep about 97.90 USDT: a 9.79% return.
Small fees add up on frequent trades. Planning the exit in advance, with a stop loss and a target, keeps the numbers under control. Check the risk/reward.

Common profit calculation mistakes
- Counting fees only once. Fees are charged when you open and again when you close. Both reduce the result.
- Confusing percent gain with profit. A 10% move on a small position is a small amount. Look at the result in USDT too.
- Forgetting the short math. A short profits when the price falls; the formula is entry minus exit, not exit minus entry.
- Ignoring taxes. Gains may be taxable where you live. This calculator does not include taxes.
Questions
How is crypto profit calculated?
Coins = investment ÷ buy price. For a long trade, profit = coins × (sell price − buy price). For a short, profit = coins × (entry price − exit price). Trading fees on both the entry and the exit are then subtracted.
What fee should I enter?
Use the trading fee your exchange charges per order, as a percent. It is applied twice: once when you open and once when you close the trade.
Are taxes included?
No. Taxes on crypto gains differ by country and are not part of this calculation.
