See exactly how big a gain you need to climb back to break even after a loss, a number that grows painfully fast and that most people underestimate. Enter the percentage drawdown you have taken, and the tool computes the gain required to recover, using the fact that a loss and its recovery are not symmetric. A twenty percent loss needs a twenty five percent gain to undo, a fifty percent loss needs a full one hundred percent gain, and a ninety percent loss needs a brutal nine hundred percent to get back to even. This asymmetry is why capital preservation and cutting losses early matter so much in volatile crypto markets. Enter your own drawdown to see the target you are really facing. All math runs locally in your browser as you type, and none of your figures are ever sent to a server.
A drop shrinks your base, so the gain must be calculated on the smaller amount. A 50 percent loss needs a 100 percent gain to break even.
The formula is the drawdown divided by one minus the drawdown. The tool applies it to your entered loss percent exactly.
Yes. Enter any percent loss and the tool returns the precise gain needed to return to your starting value.
