A reverse analysis that determines how much of an asset’s value needs to be multiplied to break even.

Breakeven multiple is a reverse break-even point (BEP) analysis used to determine the number of times the price of an asset can be multiplied before it can match operating costs. In other words, the technique is used by traders and investors to measure the futuristic potential of an asset with respect to gaining its highest historical value. A unit of an asset V that is currently worth $6, for example, needs a 100% increase to return to its all-time high value of $12. 2 is thus the breakeven multiple of the asset V.

Breakeven multiple analysis is one of the many analytical methods used to measure the relevance of an asset. If the breakeven multiple is too large, it is generally assumed that the asset in question is no longer as valuable compared to another asset with a smaller breakeven multiple.

A price characteristic relative to resistance and support levels, and can be used by traders to determine suitable entry points or limit their losses.

A breakout is a useful analytical component of price trends used to assess the probability that the price of an asset will continue to increase or decrease. This trend characteristic is often represented as a line representing the price of an asset between two other lines called resistance and support levels. When the price trend breaks out of the resistance area, this generally indicates an increase in the perceived valuation of the asset. However, when the price line dips below the support level, it can be assumed that asset valuation is very low.

Breakouts help traders determine when the best time is to invest in a particular asset or exchange them for other assets to reduce their losses.

A term in economics that indicates the point at which total production and operating costs are equal to total revenue.

The break-even point (BEP) is a point that indicates the stage or level at which the total costs incurred during the production of a commodity or service has been matched by revenue obtained from the sale of said commodity or service. In everyday business, this point is more typically described as the amount of money required to balance up production and operating costs, as if assuming that these costs were borrowed from somewhere else and must be paid back.

In crypto, traders use BEP to direct and regulate their trading activities. The concept helps traders better organize their investments using BEP analysis, thus knowing when to engage in aggressive trading and when to observe market trends without participating.
