Profit equals total exit amount minus total investment. Total investment is your buy amount plus the entry fee; total exit is BTC owned (investment ÷ buy price) times the sell price, minus the exit fee. The calculator runs all six steps automatically and shows ROI %.

If you enter prices manually, the math is exact for those inputs. If you fetch live BTC price, it comes from MoneyFlock's curated price database which updates regularly. For tax filings, always use the price at which your trade actually executed (per your exchange records), not the live indicative price.
