How this is calculated
gross P&L = (exit − entry) × quantity for a long, and the mirror for a short. Net P&L subtracts your total fees.
Return is net P&L over the capital deployed at entry. If you supply a stop, the R multiple shows the result in units of initial risk: R = netP&L ÷ (perUnitRisk × quantity).
Frequently asked questions
- How is net P&L calculated?
- Gross P&L = (exit − entry) × quantity for a long (mirrored for a short). Net P&L subtracts total fees and commissions.
- What is an R multiple?
- R multiple expresses your result in units of initial risk. If you risked $100 and made $250, that is a +2.5R trade. It needs a stop to compute.
