How to use the target exit calculator
- Enter your entry price, position size and leverage.
- Set open and close fee rates.
- Enter your profit target in USDT (or as ROE %).
- Read the required exit price to net exactly that profit.
Target exit price formula
Working backwards from a desired net PnL to the required exit price:
- For Long: exitPrice = (targetPnL + entryPrice × size × (1 + openFee)) / (size × (1 − closeFee))
- For Short: exitPrice = (entryPrice × size × (1 − openFee) − targetPnL) / (size × (1 + closeFee))
The formula accounts for the fact that close fee is charged on the exit price (not entry), making it slightly circular — the calculator solves this exactly.
Worked example — MATIC long, $100 profit target
- Entry: $0.80 · Size: $2,000 · Leverage: 10× · Open fee: 0.02% · Close fee: 0.05% · Target: $100
- Numerator = $100 + $0.80 × 2500 × 1.0002 = $100 + $2,000.40 = $2,100.40
- Denominator = 2500 × (1 − 0.0005) = 2498.75
- Exit price = $2,100.40 / 2498.75 = $0.8406
- Required move = ($0.8406 − $0.80) / $0.80 = 5.07%
To net $100 profit on a $200 margin (10× leverage), MATIC needs to move 5.07%. ROE = 50%. Without this calculator, traders often set TP at round numbers and get slightly less than expected due to fees.
Planning risk:reward ratios
Use this calculator together with the position size calculator to build complete trade plans. First, use position size to determine how large a position your risk allows. Then use target exit to find where price needs to go to reach your R:R target (e.g. 2:1 means TP profit = 2× SL loss). Comparing the two exit prices gives you a realistic view of whether the trade is worth taking.

Target exit is the reward side. Before opening, also verify your margin, liquidation distance, and funding cost:

How do I calculate my target exit price in crypto futures?
Divide your profit target by position size accounting for fees. For a long: exitPrice = (targetPnl + entryPrice × size × (1 + openFee)) / (size × (1 - closeFee)). This calculator does it instantly.
Why is my break-even exit price higher than my entry?
Because of trading fees. You pay an opening fee when entering and a closing fee when exiting. Your actual break-even is slightly above entry for longs.
What is ROE in crypto trading?
Return on Equity — profit as a percentage of your margin (collateral). A 10× leveraged position that moves 1% in your favor gives ~10% ROE (minus fees).
Does leverage affect the exit price calculation?
Leverage affects your ROE but not the required exit price itself. The exit price depends only on your profit target, position size and fees.
