Calculator

P&L & break-even calculator

Entry price, share count, fees, and optionally an exit price. Out comes your profit or loss, the return in percent, and the exit price that gets you back to exactly flat after costs.

Your fill price, not the chart’s wish
Fractions fine: 0.35 shares is a real position here
Blank = just show the break-even price
Stock desk commission was zero at launch; set your conversion cost here if you count it
Break-even exit price
P&L at exit
Return on cost

Formulas: cost = entry × shares × (1 + fee); proceeds = exit × shares × (1 − fee); break-even = entry × (1 + fee) ÷ (1 − fee). With zero fees, break-even equals entry.

Why break-even is not your entry price

With fees on both sides, the price that makes you whole sits slightly above your entry. Buy at $100 with 0.1% each way and break-even lands at $100.20, because you paid a dime extra on the way in and will surrender a dime on the way out. Small numbers, but they explain the puzzled feeling of “the price is back where I bought and I am still down”. On the Binance stock desk the commission line was zero at launch, so for pure stock trades the fee box can stay at zero and break-even equals entry; the box exists for people who count their stablecoin conversion cost as part of the trade, which is the honest way to book it. The full cost picture lives in the fee guide.

Reading the output like a trader

  • Break-even is a line on your chart, not a target. Knowing it stops the classic mistake of selling “flat” for a small loss.
  • P&L at exit is marked against your typed exit, which does not exist until an order fills there. Spreads and gaps are real; the number is a plan, not a promise.
  • Return on cost uses your all-in cost as the base, fees included, which is why it reads slightly lower than the naive price change. That difference is the truth the naive number hides.

Pair this with the position size calculator before entry, and with the market hours guide if your exit plan assumes you can always trade the moment you want to.

Numbers first, account second
