What “Amount Invested” Means
Amount Invested is the total cost of acquiring the tokens you currently hold. KoinX calculates this from your imported transactions, including buys, swaps where you received the asset, and other acquisition events in your history. If you later sell part of your holdings, the invested amount adjusts automatically to reflect only the cost of what you still own. In simple terms, it answers: “How much money went into the coins I currently hold?”What “Average Cost” Means
Average Cost is the average price you paid per unit of that asset. KoinX divides the total amount invested by the total quantity you currently hold. If you bought the same asset at different prices over time, this gives you a single blended acquisition price to compare against the current market value.
Example
You bought Bitcoin twice:- First purchase: 0.6 ETH at Rs. 2,20,000
- Second purchase: 0.183694 BTC at Rs. 28,000
How the Wallet Filter Affects These Numbers
The values shown depend on which wallet is selected at the top of the dashboard. All Wallets selected: KoinX combines transactions from all connected exchanges and wallets. The invested amount and average cost reflect your entire portfolio. Specific wallet selected: The calculation uses only that wallet’s transactions. This lets you analyse the performance of individual exchanges or wallets separately.Do Transfers Between My Wallets Change These Numbers?
No. Moving crypto between your own wallets does not change the invested amount or average cost. The original acquisition cost simply follows the asset to its new location.Why Your Average Cost Might Look Different Than Expected
Sometimes the average cost may not match what you remember paying. This usually happens for one of these reasons:- You made multiple purchases at different prices over time
- Older transactions are included in the calculation alongside recent ones
- Fees were added to the acquisition cost of some transactions
Why Portfolio Values May Differ from Your Exchange
Two common reasons for differences: Incomplete history: If historical transactions are missing or not fully imported, the invested amount or average cost will appear incorrect. Syncing your full transaction history from when you first started trading is the fix. Price refresh timing: KoinX is not a real-time portfolio tracker. Market prices refresh periodically, so values may differ slightly from what your exchange shows at any given moment.Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Average Cost different from the price I remember buying at?
Why is my Average Cost different from the price I remember buying at?

Why does my Average Cost look incorrect?
Why does my Average Cost look incorrect?
The most common reason is missing historical transactions. If older purchases were not imported, KoinX cannot calculate the correct acquisition cost. Syncing your full transaction history from when you first started trading usually resolves this.
Will editing a transaction update Average Cost?
Will editing a transaction update Average Cost?
