Frequently asked questions
How is trade profit or loss calculated?
For a long position, gross result = (exit price − entry price) × quantity. For a short position, the entry and exit difference is reversed. Net estimate = gross result − charges entered.
Can I use this for short trades?
Yes. Choose “Short (sell first)” and enter the opening price as Entry and the closing price as Exit. The estimate still excludes any costs you do not enter.
Does the calculator include trading costs automatically?
No. Enter applicable charges yourself; actual costs vary by broker, product and transaction.
