Position Size Calculator
Lots for forex, contracts for futures, worked out from your account size, risk percent and stop distance. Pick a firm below to size against its actual daily loss and max loss limits.
Pip and tick values are indicative defaults. Platforms differ, so override the value field with your platform's contract spec. This is arithmetic on the numbers you enter, not trading advice.

Frequently asked questions
How is the position size calculated?
Risk amount = account size × risk percent. Position size = risk amount ÷ (stop distance × pip or tick value). The result is rounded down so the displayed size never risks more than you entered.
What makes this different from a generic lot size calculator?
The per-firm versions clamp your risk to the firm's listed daily loss and max loss limits and warn you before a trade would breach them, using the same data as our comparison tables.
Are the pip and tick values exact?
They are indicative defaults. Pip values for non-USD-quoted pairs move with exchange rates and platforms differ on contract specs, so override the value field with your platform's figure when precision matters.
Does the calculator give trading advice?
No. It is arithmetic on the numbers you enter. Risk levels, stops and instruments are your decisions; the firm limits shown come from each firm's published rules.
