If ETH Rises 20%, How Much Do I Make?

Short answer: Profit = capital × change. At a 2,471 USDT reference price, a 20% ETH move takes the price to about 2,965.20 USDT; 2,000 USDT of capital gains 400 USDT (fees excluded).

How to calculate it

A price-change profit depends only on your capital and the percentage: profit = capital × change, and the resulting value = capital × (1 + change).

From the 2,471 USDT reference price, a 20% rise implies a target price of 2,471 × 1.20 = 2,965.20 USDT; a 20% fall implies 1,976.80 USDT.

Worked example (recompute it yourself)

Capital 2,000 USDT, ETH up 20%:

Profit = 2,000 × 0.20 = 400 USDT; value after the move = 2,000 × 1.20 = 2,400 USDT.

With a fixed coin count you can also check it by price: one ETH rising from 2,471 to 2,965.20 gains 494.20 USDT.

Notes

Fees are excluded above. At 0.1% on both sides the realised return is about 19.76%, slightly below 20%.
