Yield Estimation

Projected yields are calculated based on data from the past 24 hours of trading within the selected price range.

While other platforms might display 24-hour yield based on your collateral, DeFiTuna uses a similar methodology — with one key difference: we account for leverage, if any, in yield calculations.

This distinction is important. A 24-hour yield figure is inherently static. When you increase your collateral, the yield may appear smaller as a percentage of that collateral, even if the actual earnings haven’t changed. In contrast, using leverage amplifies your position size relative to your collateral, which means your yield as a percentage of collateral can increase significantly.

Example : $100,000 Yield last 24 hours within selected range Collateral = $10,000 Yield 24h = 10% If leverage is used (5x) Collateral = $10,000 Total position size = $50,000 Yield 24h = 50%

The estimated 24h yield does not yet account for borrowing costs. This will be included in a future update.

For now, it can be done manually. You can find the 24-hour borrowing costs in the pool stats under Funding Rate.

Example:

  • Yield 24h = 2%

  • Funding Rate = 0.04% (for both Token A and Token B)

  • Leverage = 5x

To calculate your net yield, multiply the interest rate by the leverage and subtract it from the displayed yield:

2% - (0.04% × 4) = 1.84%

Note: The interest is multiplied by 4 (not 5) because you already own 1x of your position; only the borrowed portion (4x) incurs interest.
