How we calculate Profit and Loss (P&L) | Binance.US 🇺🇸 Help Center

Your Profit and Loss (P&L) comprises your Realized P&L (complete activities) and Unrealized P&L (incomplete activities). However, you will only see your total P&L (the sum of the two) in your account.

Realized P&L = (transaction price - average purchase price) x amount held
Unrealized P&L = (current price - average purchase price) x amount hold

Rewards are not included in the P&L and will be displayed separately soon. Below we explain how different account activities are calculated.

Deposits

The price of purchase is the market price at the moment you deposit the asset

Withdrawals (including Crypto Domain and NFT purchases)

The average purchase price remains the same after withdrawing
Any fees are added to the withdrawal price
P&L is updated as there’s a new total amount of the asset

Buy (including Convert, Spot Trading, and OTC)

For multiple purchases of the same asset, the weighted average of historical prices is used
Any fees are counted as a loss

Sell (including Convert, Spot Trading, and OTC)

The average purchase price remains the same after selling
Any fees are added to the sell price
P&L is updated as there’s a new total amount of the asset

Staking

Rewards are added to your balance and not counted towards P&L

Pay

Treated as withdrawals for senders and deposits for recipients

Note: Calculations may reflect sub-cent rounding.
