Calculating Forex Profit and Loss
Knowing your exact profit or loss before you close a position — or exploring what a hypothetical exit would net you — removes the guesswork from trade management. This profit and loss calculator uses your entry price, exit price, lot size, and trade direction to give you a precise dollar figure.
Long vs short positions
On a buy (long) position, profit comes from the price rising above your entry; on a sell (short) position, profit comes from the price falling below it. Getting the direction wrong in a manual calculation is a common mistake this tool avoids entirely by asking for direction explicitly.
Using P&L calculations for trade planning
Beyond checking a completed trade, this calculator is useful for planning: testing several potential exit points against your entry before you’re in the trade helps you decide where to realistically set take-profit levels.
