- Calculate Average: Click Calculate once two or more trades are added.

Why Average Price Matters in Trading
Institutions never treat trades in isolation. They calculate the weighted average price of all entries to decide position value, margin requirements, and profit targets. Regulators like SEC and FINRA highlight cost-basis accuracy as critical for compliance and reporting.
The Math Behind PriceFusion™
The calculator uses a weighted formula:
Average Price = Σ(Trade Price × Quantity) ÷ Σ(Quantity)
- Weighted: Larger trades have more influence on the final average.
- Fees Included: Commission and transaction costs adjust the effective price.
Example: Averaging Into a Crypto Position
Sophia buys BTC in three steps:
- Trade 1: 0.5 BTC at $30,000
- Trade 2: 0.3 BTC at $28,000
- Trade 3: 0.2 BTC at $32,000
Total quantity = 1.0 BTC. PriceFusion™ calculates:
- Weighted average entry = $29,400
- Including $50 in fees, net average entry = $29,450
This is Sophia’s true cost basis, the figure she must beat to be in profit.
