Crypto Profit Calculator

Estimate crypto trade profit, loss, return percentage, and fee impact from buy price, sell price, and position size.

What the result means

The calculator compares entry price, exit price, quantity, and fees to estimate profit or loss. It is useful for checking a trade plan before placing an order or reviewing a completed trade.

Fees and slippage

Exchange fees, spread, network fees, and slippage can turn a small expected gain into a loss. Include realistic costs whenever possible.

Risk note

Crypto prices are volatile and this tool does not predict future prices. It is a math helper, not financial advice or a recommendation to buy or sell.

Recordkeeping

Keep your exchange records for tax reporting. A quick profit estimate does not replace official transaction history or tax guidance.

How to use it

1. Enter buy price, sell price, quantity, and any fees.
2. Review profit or loss and return percentage.
3. Compare scenarios and make decisions using your own risk rules.

How the calculation works

Cost basis equals buy price × quantity plus entered fees. Proceeds equal sell price × quantity. Profit is proceeds minus cost basis. This simplified estimate does not model separate buy/sell fee rates, spread, slippage, network costs, taxes, or multiple purchase lots.

Worked example

Buying 0.1 units at $40,000 and selling at $45,000 creates $500 before costs. Entering $25 in total fees reduces the displayed estimate to $475.

Frequently asked questions
