How to use the Trading Profit Calculator

  1. Choose Long (buy then sell higher) or Short (sell then buy back lower).
  2. Enter the entry and exit price and your quantity.
  3. Add the trade fee % (charged on both sides).
  4. Read gross profit, fees, net profit, and return on capital.

Worked example

Long 10 shares from $100 to $110 with a 0.1% fee each side. Gross profit is $100; fees are ~$0.21; net profit ~$99.79 on $1,000 capital — a 9.98% return.

What is Trading Profit Calculator?

Your edge is the price move minus friction. Fees, spreads, and funding rates quietly shrink every trade, so a small directional move can still lose money after costs.

Net = (Exit − Entry) × Qty (long) or (Entry − Exit) × Qty (short) − (Entry×Qty + Exit×Qty) × Fee%

Frequently asked questions

Are fees charged on both sides?

Typically yes — once when you open and once when you close. That is why the fee is applied to entry + exit notional.

Does this include spread or slippage?

No. The spread between bid and ask and any slippage are extra real costs; widen your assumed entry/exit to model them.

Can I use it for crypto?

Yes — crypto trades the same way. Just use the pair's price and your exchange's fee rate.
