Position Size Calculator
Know exactly how much to buy before you enter. Set your balance, how much you’re willing to lose, your entry and stop loss, and we do the maths.
Decide the loss first
Pick how much of your account you're OK losing, usually 1–2%.
Size follows the stop
A far stop loss means a smaller position; a tight stop allows a bigger one.
Check the reward
See what each target pays compared with what you risk.
Take-profit targets (optional)
TP1
Fill in your balance, risk, entry and stop loss to see how much to buy.
What is position sizing?
It's choosing how many coins to buy so that, if your stop loss is hit, you lose only the amount you planned. The calculator divides your risk amount by the distance to your stop loss.
How much should I risk per trade?
Most professional traders risk 0.5–2% of their account per trade. At 1%, even ten losing trades in a row only cost about 10% of your account.
Does leverage change my risk?
No. Your risk is set by position size and stop loss. Leverage only changes how much margin you put up, but too much leverage can liquidate you before your stop loss is reached.
