Import Binance trades via read-only API sync or CSV upload

Binance overview

Binance is the largest crypto exchange by volume, spanning spot, USDⓈ-M and COIN-M futures, margin, and earn products. High trade counts and separate export formats per product make consolidated tracking essential.

Binance rarely calculates cross-lot cost basis, so disposals across many buys are reconstructed with FIFO, LIFO, HIFO, or AVCO.

Why Binance tax reporting is complex

Most traders face the same structural challenges at tax time.

Fragmented exports

Binance splits spot, futures, and transaction history into separate CSV exports and API endpoints. TradingAtlas normalises all of them into one timeline so nothing is double-counted.

Missing cost basis

Binance does not provide cross-lot cost basis or realised gain/loss for tax.

Derivatives & funding

USDⓈ-M (linear) and COIN-M (inverse) perpetual and quarterly futures are parsed with realised PnL, fees, and funding kept distinct from your spot lots. Funding payments on Binance perpetuals are read from the transaction log and treated as discrete events for both PnL and tax.

Cross-exchange consolidation

Most Binance users also trade elsewhere, so reporting must stay exchange-agnostic.

How to generate your Binance tax report

From raw trade history to an export-ready report.

  1. 1Import your Binance history via read-only API sync or CSV upload (Spot trade history, USDⓈ-M futures trade history, COIN-M futures trade history).
  2. 2Let TradingAtlas normalize trades, fees, deposits, withdrawals, and transfers.
  3. 3Set your reporting currency — historical FX is applied at each transaction date.
  4. 4Choose a cost-basis method: FIFO, LIFO, HIFO, or AVCO.
  5. 5Review disposals with acquisition dates, proceeds, and gain/loss.
  6. 6Export your Binance tax report for the chosen calendar year.

Exchange-specific gaps TradingAtlas fills for you.

Cost-basis methods, reporting currency & historical FX

TradingAtlas supports FIFO (First In First Out), LIFO (Last In First Out), HIFO (Highest In First Out), and AVCO (Average Cost). Pick the method your jurisdiction requires, or switch between them to compare the tax impact on your Binance disposals.

Trades denominated in stablecoins or other assets are converted to your chosen reporting currency using historical FX at the time of each transaction, so proceeds and gains reflect real value.

Funding payments on Binance perpetuals are read from the transaction log and treated as discrete events for both PnL and tax.
