Calculator Formulas

Every calculator on this site uses a transparent, client-side formula. Source code is publicly viewable via your browser's "View Source".

DCA Calculator

total_invested = contribution × periods
units_acquired = sum(contribution / price_at_period)
current_value = units_acquired × current_price
roi = (current_value - total_invested) / total_invested

Profit & Loss

realized_pnl = (sell_price - buy_price) × quantity - fees
roi = realized_pnl / (buy_price × quantity)

Impermanent Loss (v2)

il = 2·√(price_ratio)/(1+price_ratio) - 1 where price_ratio = new_price / initial_price

Liquidation Price (Isolated, Long)

liq_price = entry × (1 - 1/leverage + maintenance_margin)

Exchange Rankings

Our exchange comparisons are scored on 6 criteria, each weighted equally (16.67%):

1. Trading fees (lower = better, base maker/taker)
2. Liquidity (24h volume across top-50 pairs)
3. Security history (years without major incident, proof of reserves)
4. Regulatory standing (number of jurisdictions licensed)
5. UX & support (mobile app rating, support response time)
6. Asset coverage (number of listed assets)

Scores re-computed monthly. Raw scoring sheet available on request.
