Position size calculator

The right position size is worked out before you open the chart. Account, risk, stop: the calculator gives you the number of contracts and what each scenario costs you or earns you.

1R = the distance to your stop. Aiming for at least 2R per trade lets you be profitable with fewer than one winning trade in two.

The calculator always rounds down: better to risk a little less than planned than a little more. In a prop firm, keep a margin on the daily limit: a day with 3 stop-outs happens more often than you would think.
