HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS: The "timing scores" and "regime signals" displayed are based on quantitative models. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity.

Enter your total account size, the percentage of your account you are willing to risk on this trade (1% is a common starting point), your planned entry price, and your stop loss price. Optionally enter a take-profit price to calculate the risk-reward ratio. The calculator will tell you exactly how many shares to buy and the dollar amount at risk.
Position Size (shares) = (Account Size × Risk %) / |Entry Price - Stop Loss Price|
Amount at Risk = Position Size × |Entry Price - Stop Loss Price|
Risk-Reward Ratio = |Take Profit - Entry| / |Entry - Stop Loss|
Position sizing is arguably the most important aspect of risk management. Even with a profitable trading strategy, improper position sizing can lead to ruin. The math is unforgiving: a 50% loss requires a 100% gain to recover. By limiting risk per trade to 1-2%, you ensure that no single trade can significantly damage your account.
Position sizing determines how many shares or contracts to trade. It ensures you never risk more than a set percentage of your account on any single trade.
Most professionals risk 0.5-2% per trade. The 1% rule is a common starting point. With 1% risk, even 10 consecutive losses only draw down your account by about 10%.
Aim for at least 2:1 (potential profit is 2x potential loss). With a 2:1 ratio, you only need to win 33% of trades to break even. Many successful traders target 3:1 or higher.
Stop losses should be placed at levels where your trade thesis is invalidated — typically below support for long positions or above resistance for short positions. Avoid placing stops at round numbers or obvious levels where they are likely to be triggered by normal volatility.
