How Taosis computes what you paid

Two methods, your choice

Weighted average cost treats every buy as contributing to one blended price. FIFO matches each sale against the oldest lot first. They give different realised figures from the same fills, so Taosis lets you pick rather than silently choosing one.

Movements are not all trades

Moving α between validators of the same subnet changes nothing about what it cost you — it carries the basis and realises nothing. Sending α to a different coldkey is a disposal at market price. A burn realises the loss in full.

Getting this wrong is not a rounding error: treating a validator move as a sale would invent a taxable event that did not happen.

Coverage, not confidence

Taosis only knows the fills it indexed. A position opened before it started watching has no known cost.

So each position states its coverage. Below full coverage the figure is marked partial, and with no coverage it shows nothing at all — because value minus a partial history fabricates enormous fake gains on an old position topped up yesterday.
