Sell Price: $35,000 per BTC

Quantity: 0.5 BTC

Buy Fee: 0.25%

Sell Fee: 0.25%

2. Buy Fee = $15,000 × 0.25% = $37.50

3. Total Investment = $15,000 + $37.50 = $15,037.50

4. Revenue = $35,000 × 0.5 = $17,500

5. Sell Fee = $17,500 × 0.25% = $43.75

6. Net Revenue = $17,500 - $43.75 = $17,456.25

Understanding Crypto Profit Calculations

What is Profit?

Profit is the financial gain achieved when the revenue from selling an asset exceeds the costs associated with acquiring and selling it. In cryptocurrency trading, this includes the purchase price, transaction fees, and any other related costs.

Gross vs. Net Profit

  • Gross Profit: Revenue minus cost of goods (before fees)
  • Net Profit: Gross profit minus all fees and expenses
  • Always use net profit for accurate performance measurement

Profit Formulas

Net Profit =
(Sell Price × Quantity - Sell Fees) - (Buy Price × Quantity + Buy Fees)

ROI % =
(Net Profit ÷ Total Investment) × 100

Profit Margin % =
(Net Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100

Why Calculate Profit?

Calculating profit helps you understand the true performance of your trades, compare different trading strategies, and make informed decisions about when to buy or sell cryptocurrencies.

Important Considerations

⚠️ Transaction Fees

Different exchanges charge different fees. Some offer fee discounts for using their native tokens or for high-volume traders.

💰 Tax Implications

Crypto profits may be subject to capital gains tax. Consult with a tax professional about your specific situation.

📊 Market Slippage

Large orders can experience price slippage, meaning you may not get the exact price you see on the order book.

🎯 Risk Management

Always know your break-even price and set stop-loss orders to protect your investment from significant losses.
