How It Works

Risk management separates profitable traders from those who blow their accounts. The 1-2% rule suggests never risking more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade. This calculator converts your risk percentage into a concrete dollar amount, then calculates the appropriate position size to achieve that risk level. If you have a $10,000 account risking 1%, your maximum loss per trade is $100. The calculator ensures your position size aligns with this risk limit based on your stop loss distance.
