How it works
Investment mode treats the entered amount as buy notional before fees. Fees are additional costs, not a deduction from the units purchased. Quantity mode instead uses the exact units you enter.
The formula
Keep currency, units and time periods consistent. Percentage inputs use percentage points (enter 5 for 5%). Results are rounded only for display; tiny nonzero values may use scientific notation. Undefined ratios are shown as unavailable.
Investing $1,000 at $50,000 buys 0.02 units. At a $60,000 sale and 0.1% fee each side, gross profit is $200, fees $2.20, net profit $197.80 and ROI 19.78%.
Calculation method
Gross price profit excludes costs. Net profit includes both trading fees and fixed costs. Net sale proceeds subtract selling fees and fixed charges; net profit also subtracts buy notional and the buy fee.
Interpretation
The sell or current price is your scenario input, not a market feed or forecast. Taxes, custody costs and spreads are excluded unless included in your fixed-cost estimate.
