Impermanent Loss Worksheet
Educational IL worksheet: valueFactor = 2√r/(1+r); IL% = (valueFactor − 1)×100. Not a live pool simulator.
Limitation: Educational worksheet only—not LP advice.
How to Use the IL Worksheet
Enter assumptions you control; nothing is fetched live.
Enter the new price ratio relative to entry (r > 0).
r = 1 means no IL
When the ratio is unchanged, IL% is 0.
What It Calculates
For constant-product pools, value vs HODL ≈ 2√r/(1+r). IL% = (factor − 1)×100.
Examples
2× price move
Scenario inputs
Worksheet result
2√2/(1+2) − 1 ≈ −5.72%.
Unchanged price
Scenario inputs
Worksheet result
2√1/(1+1) − 1 = 0.
Change one input at a time
Label currency and horizon so scenarios stay comparable.
