What is this feature used for?
This feature automatically calculates and displays the average purchase price (also known as cost basis or average cost) for each cryptocurrency you currently hold.
It allows you to analyze the profitability of your portfolio and know your cost basis without having to enter this information manually. The system relies on your complete transaction history (deposits and trades) to determine this price.
Where to find this feature
This information is displayed in a dedicated list called “Automatic acquisition prices”, separate from manually entered prices.
You can see it in your Portfolio, below the price of a cryptocurrency :
How to use it effectively
The calculation is fully automated, but here’s how to make sure you have the most up-to-date data:
Check your eligibility: Make sure you have a paid subscription plan. Users on the free plan only have access to manual calculations.
Review your prices: The system displays a weighted average price based on the quantities purchased and the price paid for each transaction.
➡️ Use these indicators to better manage your investments and understand the true performance of your portfolio assets.
Important points to know
Calculation method: The displayed price is a weighted average based on your deposit and trade history. If you sell all of a token, its acquisition price is automatically removed from the list.
Updates and cache: To ensure fast performance, calculations are cached for 1 hour. The system automatically recalculates prices when the cache expires, during your first visit.
Manual transactions: The automatic PnL calculation does not take into account transactions added manually for platforms not supported by Waltio.
