Enter your inputs before you place the trade, not after. Pre-trade planning is where calculators create value.
Use realistic values based on your actual execution conditions. If you understate slippage, fees, or stop distance, output quality collapses.
Document the result inside your journal so you can compare planned vs realized outcomes during review.
Trading fees are charged on notional value, not margin. With leverage your effective notional is order size × leverage, so fees scale with leverage even though your capital at risk does not.
Most exchanges use volume-based fee tiers — the more you trade, the lower your rate. This calculator helps you see whether hitting the next tier is worth changing your execution style. Fees vary by exchange, tier, token pair, and whether you use maker or taker orders. Funding fees, withdrawal fees, and rebates are not included — treat this as a baseline estimate.
Most preventable losses come from skipping one simple calculation when markets move fast. This tool enforces the minimum math needed for disciplined execution.
The value compounds when used consistently. One correct risk decision rarely changes a year; repeated correct decisions usually do.
Tie calculator output to your strategy tags so you can evaluate whether your planning assumptions match live performance.
Use this tool at planning time, then compare outcome quality in weekly review sessions.
If planned and realized values diverge, investigate execution behavior before adjusting strategy logic.
Pair this with one behavior correction each week for compounding improvement.
Using unrealistic inputs because they feel better emotionally.
Changing parameters mid-trade to justify staying in a bad position.
Treating one output as a signal to trade rather than a risk filter.
Yes. The calculator is free and available without signup.
Fees are a percentage of the notional trade value. If you buy $10,000 of BTC at a 0.05% fee rate you pay $5. With 10× leverage the notional is $100,000 and the fee is $50 — even though you only posted $10,000 margin.
Yes. Moving from 0.06% taker to 0.04% taker on 100 trades/month at $10,000 notional saves $200/month ($2,400/year). High-frequency traders can save more by qualifying for VIP tiers or using maker orders.
No. This calculator covers trading (execution) fees only. Perpetual futures also charge funding fees every 8 hours, which can add or subtract from your costs depending on market conditions and your position direction.
It shows what percentage of your actual capital (margin) goes to fees per trade. At 10× leverage with a 0.05% fee rate, the effective fee on your margin is 0.5% — ten times higher than the quoted rate.
Outputs are only as accurate as inputs. Use realistic assumptions and review planned vs realized values weekly.
Yes. You can pair tool outputs with your review workflow and setup tags for better post-trade diagnostics.
