How to calculate percentage change
The formula is straightforward: (New Value - Old Value) / |Old Value| x 100. A positive result means an increase. A negative result means a decrease.
Useful for price movements
Traders use percentage change to compare moves across different assets. A stock going from $50 to $55 and another going from $200 to $220 both moved 10%, even though the dollar amounts differ. Percentage change normalizes the comparison.
Stocks, crypto, and forex
Whether you are tracking daily price swings in crypto, quarterly earnings changes in stocks, or pip movements in forex, percentage change gives you a universal way to measure and compare performance across any asset class.
