EURUSD Kalkylator för positionsstorlek
How is the position size calculated for the EUR/USD pair on this calculator?
The calculator considers your account balance (in EUR or USD), risk percentage (e.g., 1%), stop-loss in pips, and—if needed—the current exchange rate to determine the exact position size in lots. For example, when calculating for EUR/USD: with a USD account, a 1% risk, and a 50-pip stop-loss, the tool will calculate the precise lot size you should trade.
What is a Position Size Calculator and why should traders use it?
It’s a risk management tool that automatically determines the optimal trade volume (in lots) based on your account size, risk tolerance, and stop-loss level. It helps limit losses and maintain trading discipline, regardless of market conditions.
Does the selected currency pair, such as GBP/JPY, affect the calculation?
Yes. If your account currency differs from the pair’s quote currency (e.g., account in USD, pair GBP/JPY), the calculator uses the current market exchange rate to ensure accurate position sizing and risk calculation.
Can I use the calculator for pairs like AUD/CAD, XAU/USD, or EUR/TRY?
Absolutely! The calculator supports major, minor, and exotic currency pairs, as well as CFDs on commodities like gold (XAU/USD). Simply select the desired pair and input your trading parameters.
