Trading Calculators

Margin, leverage, profit targets and risk per trade — the figures a trader checks before placing an order. These tools are built around position sizing and the cost of being wrong, not around predictions about where a price goes next.

A margin trade lets you hold a position worth far more than the cash you post, and this calculator shows what that really commits you to.

Find out exactly how much margin a leveraged position locks up before you open it.

Most businesses sell more than one thing, and each product earns a different margin.

This page is about margin in leveraged trading: how much of your balance a position ties up, and what is left over after it.

In cross margin mode your whole account balance stands behind a position, so the liquidation price is not a property of the trade alone.

A margin loan is money borrowed from a broker against the securities in an account, and its risk sits in one number: how far your equity stands above the maintenance line.

Leverage lets a long position control more assets than the cash behind it, and it multiplies losses at exactly the same rate as gains.

If you buy shares with borrowed money, one percentage tells you how much of the account is really yours: your equity divided by the current market value of the securities.

A same-day trade is only as good as what survives the charges.

Professional traders decide risk first and position size second: a fixed percentage of the account per trade, converted into shares by the distance to the stop-loss.
