Forex risk and position size calculators

Explore Forex position sizing with account-currency conversion, risk/reward, expectancy, drawdown and date-aware session times. No live prices.

Forex position size and pip value

Choose the pair, account currency, hypothetical balance, risk percentage and stop distance. When quote and account currencies differ, supply the quote-to-account exchange rate. The tool uses no live prices.

Risk budget = balance × risk percentage / 100. Loss per unit = (stop pips + additional spread pips) × pip size × quote-to-account rate + account-currency commission per lot / 100,000. Units are rounded down to the selected increment.

Hypothetical example: USD 10,000 balance, 0.5% risk and a 20-pip EUR/USD stop, before additional costs, give a USD 50 budget and 25,000 units (0.25 standard lots). This is arithmetic, not a recommended position.

Expectancy, drawdown and sessions

Explore win rate versus average reward and loss, the recovery required after losing streaks, risk/reward and date-specific London/New York session clocks. Calculations do not establish a profitable model.
