Total fees
Fees are applied to both the entry and the exit. This calculator ignores tax, funding costs and slippage, all of which are real and none of which we can know for you. Nothing here is advice.
What this calculator does
It answers a question most people get wrong by a surprising margin: after fees, what did that trade actually make? Enter your quantity, the price you bought at, the price you sold at (or are considering selling at) and your exchange’s fee, and it returns net profit in dollars, return as a percentage, total fees paid, and the price at which the trade breaks even.
How to use it
- Quantity — how many units of the asset, not the dollar amount.
- Buy price and Sell price — per unit, in dollars.
- Fee per side — your exchange’s percentage fee. It is applied to both the purchase and the sale, because you pay it twice.
Why break-even is higher than your buy price
This is the number worth internalising. If you pay a fee going in and a fee coming out, the price has to rise above what you paid before you are level. At a 0.1% fee per side that gap is small; on an exchange charging 0.5% a side, or on a token with a wide spread, it is not. Traders who take many small positions frequently discover that fees, not direction, were what made them unprofitable.
What it deliberately ignores
Tax is not modelled, because it depends on your jurisdiction, your holding period and your other disposals in the year — and getting that wrong for you would be worse than leaving it out. Slippage is not modelled either: on thin order books your fill can be materially worse than the price you clicked. Funding costs on leveraged positions, withdrawal fees and network fees are also excluded. The output is therefore an optimistic upper bound on a real result, not a promise.
Frequently asked questions
Should I include the spread in the fee field? If you know it, yes — add roughly half the spread per side. That gets you closer to reality than the headline fee alone.
Does this work for a loss? Yes. A negative result is shown in red, and the percentage is the loss on your cost.
Is this advice? No. It is arithmetic on numbers you supplied. Nothing here suggests you should take, hold or close any position.
