Solana profit calculator

With a 1% platform fee on the buy and on the sell, a token has to rise about 2% before the trade breaks even, plus whatever you pay in priority fees.

How profit is calculated

Tokens = (SOL in × SOL price) × (1 − fee) ÷ buy price Proceeds = tokens × sell price × (1 − fee) Cost = SOL in × SOL price + 2 × tx fee × SOL price Profit = proceeds − cost Break-even = cost ÷ (tokens × (1 − fee))

Example: you buy with 2 SOL at $150, so $300. After a 1% fee, $297 buys 70,714 tokens at $0.0042. Selling at $0.0063 gives $445.50, minus 1% is about $441.05. With 0.001 SOL in priority fees on each side, the cost is $300.30 and the profit is about $140.75, a 46.9% return.

Without any fees the same trade would make $150, so fees cost a little over $9 here. That is the figure shown as "What fees cost you".

The calculator assumes the SOL price stays the same between buy and sell. Slippage and protocol fees, such as Pump.fun's fee on bonding-curve trades, are not included; add them to the platform fee if you want to count them.

Questions

Why do I need more than a 2% rise to break even?

The platform fee is charged twice, once on the buy and once on the sell, and priority fees are paid on each transaction. On small trades, priority fees can add another 1% or more.

Is the platform fee taken in SOL or in the token?

Most Solana terminals take the fee in SOL from the amount you trade. The effect on profit is the same either way.

Does this work for any SPL token?

Yes. Enter the token's USD price at your buy and at your sell. For memecoins quoted by market cap, use the market cap calculator.
