Forex position & risk calculator

Size the pair before the entry.

A learning tool for currency trades. Give it your account size and how much you're willing to lose, and it works out your position size in units and lots, the value of each pip, your spread cost, and what you'd make or lose. It only gathers and explains data - it never places a trade.
