Supply in Profit=∑_u∈utxosvalue_u\*I(price∗u>price∗created,u)\text{Supply in Profit} = \sum\_{u \in utxos} \text{value}\_u \* \mathbb{I}(\text{price}*u > \text{price}*{created, u}) Supply in Loss=∑_u∈utxosvalue_u\*I(price∗u<price∗created,u)\text{Supply in Loss} = \sum\_{u \in utxos} \text{value}\_u \* \mathbb{I}(\text{price}*u < \text{price}*{created, u}) Percent Supply in Profit=100\*Supply in ProfitTotal Supply\text{Percent Supply in Profit} = 100 \* \frac{\text{Supply in Profit}}{\text{Total Supply}} Percent Supply in Loss=100\*Supply in LossTotal Supply\text{Percent Supply in Loss} = 100 \* \frac{\text{Supply in Loss}}{\text{Total Supply}}
