Forex Calculators

Size your trades with confidence.

Quick, no-nonsense tools for position sizing, pip value, profit/loss, margin, compounding, risk of ruin, drawdown and leverage. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.

Amount at risk—
Position size—
Units—

For most USD-quoted majors the pip value is ~$10 per standard lot. Adjust it for JPY pairs or a non-USD account.

Pip value (quote currency)—
Pip value (account currency)—

If the pair is quoted in your account currency, leave the rate at 1. Otherwise enter how much 1 unit of the quote currency is worth in your account currency.

Move—
Profit / Loss (quote)—
Profit / Loss (account)—
Position value (quote)—
Required margin (quote)—

Margin is shown in the quote currency. Convert to your account currency if it differs.

Total profit—
Final balance—
Total return—

Return compounds each period; any deposit is added at the end of each period. A "period" can be a day, month or year — whatever your return figure is measured over.

Expectancy—
Risk of ruin—

A Monte-Carlo estimate over 3,000 simulated runs, risking a fixed % of your balance each trade — "ruin" being a fall of the chosen amount from the start. Even a positive edge carries real ruin risk if you risk too much per trade, which is the whole point of the tool.

Drawdown—
Drawdown %—
Gain needed to recover—

A 50% drawdown needs a 100% gain just to get back to even — which is why keeping drawdown small matters more than chasing big returns.

Position value (quote)—
Effective leverage—

Effective leverage = total position value ÷ your equity. The higher it runs, the less the market has to move against you to do real damage.
