1. Position size
Position size is one of the most useful planning calculations because it connects account balance, risk percentage and stop distance. Open the position size calculator to work through the inputs.
2. Pip value
A pip calculation helps translate price movement into an approximate monetary amount. This is useful when comparing pairs, lot sizes and planned stop distances.
3. Risk/reward
A risk/reward calculation compares the distance to the planned stop with the distance to the planned target. It is a planning framework, not a measure of whether a trade will win.
4. Profit and loss
A profit/loss calculation can show how entry, exit and size interact. Use it to check the arithmetic before an order is placed rather than after the market moves.
5. Margin and leverage
Margin and leverage can materially change exposure. Understanding the amount required for a position helps prevent surprises, especially for new traders. Visit the full Trading Tools hub for the current calculator set.
