Crypto P&L Formula
P&L = (Sell Price × Qty - Sell Fee) - (Buy Price × Qty + Buy Fee)
Buy Fee = Buy Price × Qty × (Fee % / 100)
Sell Fee = Sell Price × Qty × (Fee % / 100)
ROI = (Net Profit / Total Buy Cost) × 100
Example Calculation
You buy 0.5 Bitcoin at $40,000 and sell at $55,000. Exchange fee is 0.1% each way.

Why Fees Matter More Than You Think
On a $10,000 trade at 0.1% fee each way you pay $20. That seems small. But if you make 100 trades per year that is $2,000 in fees — money directly taken from your profit. Always use the lowest fee exchange for your trading volume.
