# Profit and Loss (UTxO)

> The number of UTxOs being in profit or loss by comparing the price between created and destroyed

## What is Profit and Loss (UTxO)?

Profit and Loss (UTxO) evaluates the number of UTxOs being in profit or loss by comparing the price between created and destroyed. When the price at destroyed time is higher than created, this transaction is in profit.

$$
\text{UTxOs in Profit} = \text{Number of UTxOs being in profit}
$$

$$
\text{UTxOs in Loss} = \text{Number of UTxOs being in loss}
$$

$$
\text{Percent UTxOs in Profit} = 100 \* \frac{\text{UTxOs in Profit}}{\text{Number of UTxOs}}
$$

$$
\text{Percent UTxOs in Loss} = 100 \* \frac{\text{UTxOs in Loss}}{\text{Number of UTxOs}}
$$

## How to interpret Profit and Loss (UTxO)

Assuming that UTxO's movement is the result of trading transaction, Profit and Loss (UTxO) is the basic data that shows how many UTxOs are in profit or loss.

### By Examining Absolute Numbers <a href="#interpretation" id="interpretation" />

If you want to look for how **many** UTxOs are in profit/Loss

* **Numbers** of UTxOs that are in **Profit**: [Profit amount](https://cryptoquant.com/overview/btc-network-indicator/16432?window=day)

  Profit amount naturally shows a correlation to the price
* **Numbers** of UTxOs that are in **Loss**: [Loss Amount](https://cryptoquant.com/overview/btc-network-indicator/16433?window=day)

  Loss amount naturally shows an inverse correlation to the price

### By Examining Ratio <a href="#indicating-selling-or-buying-pressure" id="indicating-selling-or-buying-pressure" />

If you want to look for ratio of UTxOs are in profit/Loss comparative to all UTxOs

* **Ratio** of UTxOs that are in **Profit:** [Profit percent](https://cryptoquant.com/overview/btc-network-indicator/16434?window=day)

  Profit percent naturally shows a correlation to the price
* **Ratio** of UTxOs that are in **Loss:** [Loss percent ](https://cryptoquant.com/overview/btc-network-indicator/16435?window=day)

  Loss percent naturally shows an inverse correlation to the price
