Method
How it works
This LP value calculation assumes a constant-product 50/50 liquidity pool containing one changing token and one stable-priced token. The modelled pool value is the deposited value multiplied by the square root of the token price ratio.
Impermanent loss compares that estimated LP value with the value of simply holding the original two-token position. Swap fees, incentives, concentrated liquidity and pool weights other than 50/50 are excluded.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
How is LP value calculated in this model?
Price now is divided by price at deposit to find the price ratio. The deposited value is then multiplied by the square root of that ratio.
What pool type does this impermanent loss calculator assume?
It assumes a constant-product 50/50 pool with one token priced against a stable token.
Are liquidity-provider fees included?
No. The result isolates impermanent loss and does not add trading fees, rewards or incentives.
Is LP value the same as impermanent loss?
No. LP value estimates what the position in the pool is worth; impermanent loss is the percentage difference between that value and the modelled value of holding the original tokens.
