Position Size Calculator

Translate a fixed risk budget and assumed pip value into a hypothetical position size.

Position size, risk first

Assume an account denominated in USD and confirm the instrument-specific pip value.

Illustration only. The $10 default pip value applies to 100,000 EUR in EUR/USD under conventional pip quoting. Other pairs and instruments require independent conversion. Stops do not guarantee a maximum loss.

Important: These calculators present mathematical examples, not trading recommendations. No live rates are collected or implied. Always verify contract specifications, conversion rates, fees and investor protections before using real money.
