    Calculating realized P&L in the context of cryptocurrency transactions can be a complex task. Different exchanges may have different fee structures and trading pairs, which can affect the calculation. It's important to keep track of all your transactions, including buys, sells, and transfers between wallets or exchanges. Some cryptocurrency portfolio management tools or tax software can help automate this process by importing your transaction history and generating P&L reports. Additionally, it's advisable to regularly reconcile your records with the transaction history provided by the exchanges to ensure accuracy. Remember, accurate calculation of realized P&L is crucial for tax reporting and assessing the performance of your cryptocurrency investments.
