- Network fees. If you transfer coins to a wallet or from a wallet to an exchange, you pay gas/network fees.
- Taxes. Taxes vary by jurisdiction. CH often 0% for private investors, DE 25%+ if held <1 year, US 15-37%.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate PAX Gold profit?
Profit = (Sell Price − Buy Price) × Amount − Fees. Example: You buy 1 PAXG at $100 (+0.5% fee = $0.50) and sell at $150 (−0.5% fee = $0.75). Net profit: ($150 − $100) − $0.50 − $0.75 = $48.75. ROI: 48.75 / 100.50 = 48.5%. The calculator above does this for any prices and amounts.
What fees does the calculator account for?
The calculator accounts for trading fees on BOTH buy and sell (maker/taker on centralized exchanges). Default: 0.5% per side (typical Binance/Coinbase without volume discount). Not included: withdrawal fees, network fees (gas), slippage, spread, taxes. For official tax math, use Koinly or a tax advisor.
When should I sell PAX Gold?
This is a personal decision that depends on your time horizon. Common strategies: (1) take-profit levels (e.g. 2x/3x/5x ATH targets), (2) position trimming at extreme valuations (MVRV > 3.5), (3) stop-loss at key technical levels, (4) rebalancing back to target allocation.
