# Yield Estimation

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

{% hint style="warning" %}
The projected yield is only an estimate based on trading data from the past 24 hours. It is not guaranteed, as both trading volume and yields are constantly fluctuating.
{% endhint %}

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.

{% hint style="info" %}
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%
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
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.
