Position Analysis

Profit/Loss Calculation

Long Position:

PnL = (Mark Price - Entry Price) × Size
PnL % = (Mark Price - Entry Price) / Entry Price × 100

Short Position:

PnL = (Entry Price - Mark Price) × Size
PnL % = (Entry Price - Mark Price) / Entry Price × 100

ROE Calculation (Futures)

ROE = PnL / Initial Margin × 100

Example:
Entry: $50,000
Mark: $52,000
Size: 0.1 BTC
Leverage: 10x
Initial Margin: $500

PnL = $200
ROE = $200 / $500 × 100 = 40%

Break-Even Price

Break-Even = Entry Price + (Entry × Fee Rate × 2)

Example:
Entry: $50,000
Fee: 0.05%
Break-Even: $50,000 × 1.001 = $50,050

Liquidation (Futures)

Understanding Liquidation

When your losses approach your margin, the exchange liquidates your position.

Liquidation Risk = (Entry Price - Mark Price) / Entry Price × Leverage

Example:
10x leverage = 10% move liquidates
20x leverage = 5% move liquidates
50x leverage = 2% move liquidates
