How it works
Break-even price formula
Break-even price is where your position PnL equals zero after paying both the opening and closing fee. Leverage does not change the break-even percentage — it only shifts the liquidation price.
Total Fee% = Entry Fee% + Exit Fee%
Long: BEP = Entry × (1 + Total Fee%)
Short: BEP = Entry × (1 − Total Fee%)
Example: entry $94,200, both taker on Binance (0.05% each) → Long BEP = $94,200 × 1.001 = $94,294.20 (+0.10% from entry).

Break-even % by order type
Switching one or both legs to maker orders meaningfully reduces the required move to break even, especially at lower leverage where the edge is thin.
