Worked example
Buy 0.1 BTC at 60,000 USD with a fee of half a percent and it costs 6,030 USD. Sell it at 74,861 USD with the same fee and you receive 7,449 USD: a profit of 1,419 USD, or +23.5%.
How it works
Cost = amount × buy price × (1 + buy fee). Proceeds = amount × sell price × (1 − sell fee). Profit = proceeds − cost, and the return is profit ÷ cost. The break-even sell price is buy price × (1 + buy fee) ÷ (1 − sell fee): sell above it and you are in profit.
Frequently asked questions

The sell price at which your profit is exactly zero once both fees are paid. It sits a little above your buy price, by the size of the two fees.
