Every trade starts
with the right size.
Turn your account balance, risk budget, and stop distance into a clear position size. Know your exposure before you enter.
Transparent calculations.
Numbers you can check.
The math behind
your position.
Start with the amount you are willing to risk. Divide it by the loss per lot at your stop, including any fee you enter.
Reference: forex pip conventions ↗Risk budget ÷ (stop pips × pip value per lot + fee per lot)
Before you place the trade.
Why is my result rounded down?
Brokers accept specific lot increments. Rounding down keeps the modeled stop-loss and fees within the budget you selected. If the result is below one increment, no position fits that budget.
Does leverage change the position size?
This calculator sizes by stop-loss risk. Leverage affects the margin needed to open the position, which you must check separately with your broker.
Are these live exchange rates?
No. Same-currency calculations need no exchange rate. For other currencies, enter the current quote-to-account conversion rate yourself. Updating it changes the pip value and position size.
Can I use this for gold or Bitcoin?
This prototype supports the listed forex pairs only. Metals and crypto need broker-specific contract and tick settings; those belong in a separate instrument mode.
