Crypto Profit Calculator
Calculate the profit or loss on a crypto trade from your buy and sell prices, quantity, and fees, with the net return and ROI percentage.
Net profit / loss
-
Show the math
Profit is what you get back minus what you put in, after fees:
profit = (sell × qty − sell fee) − (buy × qty + buy fee)
The fee percentage is applied to both the purchase and the sale, since most exchanges charge on each trade. Total invested is your buy cost plus the buy-side fee; ROI is net profit divided by that amount. Negative numbers mean a loss.
What this does
A crypto profit calculator finds the profit or loss on a trade from your buy and sell prices, quantity, and fees, returning the net result and the ROI percentage.
How to use it
- Enter your buy price and quantity.
- Enter your sell price.
- Enter the trading fee percentage.
- Read your net profit or loss and ROI.
How it works
Profit equals proceeds from selling minus the cost of buying minus fees. Cost is buy price × quantity, proceeds are sell price × quantity, and the fee percentage is applied on both the purchase and the sale.
Understanding your result
ROI is your net profit divided by the total invested, including buy-side fees. Crypto prices are highly volatile, and gains may be taxable, treat results as estimates, not advice.
Example
Buying 0.5 BTC at $40,000 and selling at $50,000 with 0.5% fees nets roughly $4,775 profit, an ROI of about 23.8%.

Enter your fee as a percentage; it is applied to both the purchase and the sale, since most exchanges charge on each trade. This gives a realistic net result.
What does ROI mean here?
ROI is your net profit divided by the total amount invested (including buy-side fees), shown as a percentage, a quick measure of how well the trade performed.
