Crypto Futures Breakeven Calculator (Fees and Funding Included)
Find the exit price where a USDT perpetual trade stops losing money after trading fees and funding. The calculation runs in your browser.
How the breakeven price is calculated
A trade breaks even when the exit value covers the entry value, both trading fees and any funding you paid. Fees are charged on notional value (price × size), so the closing fee depends on the exit price itself:
Funding is entered as the total percentage of notional paid while the position was open; use a negative value when you received funding. A common shortcut, Entry × (1 + 2 × fee), gives almost the same number at these fee levels; the formula above is exact for the inputs given.
Leverage does not change the breakeven price, because fees are charged on the full position. It does change how much of your margin the fees eat: a 0.10% round trip costs 1% of margin at 10x and 5% at 50x.
Worked examples (long, entry 100,000 USDT, OKX rates)
| Order types | Breakeven | Move needed | Share of margin at 10x | at 50x |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Taker in → taker out | 100,100.05 | +0.100% | 1.00% | 5.00% |
| Maker in → taker out | 100,070.04 | +0.070% | 0.70% | 3.50% |
| Maker in → maker out | 100,040.01 | +0.040% | 0.40% | 2.00% |
| Taker both ways, 20% fee discount | 100,080.03 | +0.080% | 0.80% | 4.00% |
| Taker both ways + 0.03% funding paid | 100,130.07 | +0.130% | 1.30% | 6.50% |
Where the fee discount field comes from
Some exchanges show a fee discount on their own sign-up page when you join through a partner link. On the dates we checked, OKX's sign-up page for code COINPOP showed "20% off on trading fees" (details), and Bybit's page reached through the CoinPopBit partner link showed "a 20% fee discount for 90 days" (details). MEXC's page shows commission sharing, which is not a discount on your fee rate (details). Offers can differ by region and can change, so enter only what your own account shows.
Things this calculator does not include
- Slippage. Market orders can fill at a worse price than the one you see, which moves the real breakeven further away.
- Tiered and promotional rates. VIP levels, token-based discounts and contract-specific rates change the fee; replace the default rate with yours.
- Liquidation risk. Reaching breakeven does not matter if the position is liquidated first. Check the distance with the liquidation price calculator.
