How to Use ProfitPulse™ for Accurate Trade Analysis
ProfitPulse™ is designed for traders who go beyond “open and close” trading. It lets you calculate profit and loss for a single position or multiple partial exits, giving you a net figure after commissions and swaps. This is exactly how professional trade journals record results and how prop firms assess trader performance.
- Select Asset & Position Type: Choose the market (forex, stock, index, crypto) and whether you’re buying or selling.
- Enter Trade Details: Input entry price, lot size, and take-profit or stop-loss levels for each exit leg.
- Factor in Costs: Add broker commission per round lot and swap rates if the trade is held overnight.
- Click Calculate: Instantly see profit in pips, account currency, and net result after all fees.
Why a True Profit Calculator Beats “Gross Only” Tools
Most so-called profit calculators only show the gross outcome. They ignore broker fees, swap charges, and the impact of multiple exits. The CFTC and ESMA both warn that overlooking these costs can distort your strategy’s performance and lead to over-leveraging. ProfitPulse™ eliminates that blind spot.
The Math Behind ProfitPulse™
The calculations account for each exit leg’s pip gain/loss, convert to account currency, and subtract total costs:
Net Profit = Σ[(Pips × Pip Value × Lots) - Costs]
- Pip Value: Adjusted per asset and lot size.
- Costs: Commission per round lot + Swaps × Days held.
Example: Scaling Out Like a Pro
Alex buys 2.00 lots of EUR/USD at 1.1000. He sets two targets:
- Exit 1: 1.1100 (1.00 lot)
- Exit 2: 1.1200 (1.00 lot)
Commission is $7 per round lot, swap is -$2/day for 2 days. ProfitPulse™ shows:
- Gross profit: $4,000
- Broker costs: $14 commissions + $8 swaps
- Net Profit: $3,978
This is the number that matters! The figure that reflects real profitability.
Profit Calculator FAQs
Can I calculate trades with multiple profit targets?
Yes. ProfitPulse™ is built for traders who scale out of positions. You can set up to three exits with different lot sizes and TPs.
Does this work for CFDs, crypto, and stocks?
Absolutely. Pip values are adjusted per asset, and non-forex trades are calculated in points or ticks.
How are commissions applied?
They’re charged per round lot (both entry and exit together). For example, a $7 commission is $3.50 to open and $3.50 to close, all deducted once the position is opened.
Why include swaps?
Because overnight financing costs can make a profitable trade unprofitable. Swaps are often overlooked in basic calculators.
Can I use this to compare brokers?
Yes! By entering different commission and swap rates, you can see the impact on net profitability instantly.
