How to Calculate Crypto Profit & Loss
Whether you are buying Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any altcoin, the core formula for profit and loss is the same. Crypto P&L calculations follow standard investment math.
Key Crypto Formulas
Profit / Loss
(Sell Price − Buy Price) × Number of Coins

Position value
Current Price × Number of Coins held
Worked Example
You buy 0.5 ETH at $2,000 each (total cost: $1,000).
ETH rises to $3,500. You sell your 0.5 ETH.
Profit = (3,500 − 2,000) × 0.5 = $750
ROI = (1,500 / 2,000) × 100 = 75%
