From estimate to a live bot scenario
Carry the same logic into Veles: set comparable parameters, preview the order grid, then backtest before you launch.
- Match direction, leverage, grid, Martingale, and TP/SL
- Inspect orders, capital allocation, and average entry
- Stress-test fees, drawdown, and MAE in a backtest
Assumptions & conventions
- Linear spot: gross = (sell − buy) × quantity.
- Invested capital includes buy-side fee.
- Educational estimate only — not financial advice or live exchange data.
Frequently asked questions
How is spot crypto PnL calculated?
Gross PnL = (sell − buy) × quantity with no leverage. Fees = feeRate × (buy + sell) × quantity on both legs. Invested capital includes buy-side fee: buy × qty × (1 + feeRate).
ROI = net PnL ÷ invested capital.
Does spot PnL include withdrawal or network fees?
No. Only the trading fee rate you enter on buy and sell notional is modeled. On-chain transfer, deposit, and withdrawal costs are external.
Add those manually if you need all-in round-trip economics.
Spot vs futures PnL — what is different?
Spot has no leverage, funding, or liquidation in this model — just buy and sell with optional per-side fees. Futures calculators add direction, leverage, and margin semantics.
Use spot PnL for cash-market round trips; futures for perpetual closed trades.
What fee rate should I enter?
Use your exchange spot taker or maker rate per side as a human percent (0.1% → 0.1 in the field). The UI converts to decimals for compute.
VIP tiers and promo discounts are not fetched live.
Can ROI be negative on a winning gross trade?
Yes. If fees exceed gross profit on small moves or sizes, net PnL and ROI turn negative even when sell > buy.
