ETH: DEX Exit Cost
Included with Plus.
What it would cost to sell $100,000, $1 million or $10 million of this token through Ethereum's DEX pools right now, as a percentage below the best price, each hour.
Why use it. It translates depth into what a seller actually loses: the difference between the screen price and what an exit would really get. How to read it. Lower is better. A line that climbs means the same order now costs more to fill. A cost of 2% on $1M means the sell fills 2% below the best price.
Calculation. Quoted from CryptoKeyhole's own Ethereum node each hour: each listed token's pools that trade against a dollar stablecoin, ether or wrapped bitcoin (the most-traded few, on Uniswap v2, v3 and v4, SushiSwap, PancakeSwap and Curve) are asked, with each venue's own swap math and fees, how much of the priced side each sell order size would buy. The token's curve is the best split of a sell order across those pools. Depth at 1%, 2% and 5% is the sell order in dollars whose last slice still fills within that distance of the best price (the price of the smallest quoted size, about $1,000); the exit cost of a sell of $100,000, $1 million or $10 million is the percentage below the best price that the whole order fills at, against the same pools at once. A size above what the quoted pools can absorb leaves its cost blank. Other venues (Balancer, Fluid, Ekubo and Maverick), other networks and centralised exchanges are not included, so these are minimums for liquidity on Ethereum. Days before 9 November 2026 are read once a day at the day's last block, from today's most-traded pools, so a pool that has since lost its volume is missing from them.
