When opening and closing many positions it can be easy to lose track of the performance of your individual trades. You can easily calculate this with our Profit Calculator. Simply select your currency pair, your account currency, how many days you kept the trade open for, the size of the position, whether you went long or short and your opening and closing prices. Click ‘Calculate’ and the Profit Calculator will work out exactly how the trade performed, factoring in the swap fee.
The Profit Calculator works as follows:
Profit in Account Currency = ((close price – open price) * Position size / (or *) Currency rate) ± (swap in account currency value *period)
