Profit and Loss Threshold

Definition

A profit and loss threshold represents a specific price point for a digital asset at which an investor’s unrealized gains or losses transition from one state to another, such as from profit to loss or vice versa. This threshold is typically based on the average acquisition cost of an investor’s holdings. Crossing this point can trigger significant psychological or strategic responses, influencing selling or buying decisions. It serves as a key reference for individual investment performance.
