P-Trades Hub

Position size calculator

Enter your account equity, the share of it you are willing to lose on one trade, and how far away your stop sits. The calculator returns the lot size that risk allows and the cash it puts at stake — the same arithmetic the P-Trades terminal runs before it sizes a setup.

0.4 lots

Cash at risk if the stop is hit: 100.00 USD 250.00 USD per lot over a 25 pips stop.

Rounded down to this instrument's 0.01 lot step. Spread, commission, swap and slippage are not included; your broker's own margin and minimum stop rules still apply.

How the sizing works

Cash at risk is your equity multiplied by your risk percentage. Risk per lot is the stop distance in price multiplied by the instrument's contract size — 100 troy ounces for gold, 100,000 units of the base currency for a standard FX lot. Dividing one by the other gives the lot size, then it is rounded down to the broker's lot step so the result never exceeds the risk you typed.

Inside the terminal the same calculation runs against your connected broker account instead of typed numbers: real equity, the broker's own contract specification and minimum stop distance, and a live conversion rate when the instrument is quoted in another currency. When any of those is missing or stale, sizing refuses and names the reason rather than guessing.

Have this done for you

P-Trades Hub scans the market every 15 minutes, grades each setup, and sizes it against your own risk settings automatically — with an explicit No Trade default when nothing qualifies.
