How to Use This Site

Step 1 — Estimate Position Size

Use the Position Size Calculator on the homepage to estimate how much of your account may be exposed based on your selected risk percentage and stop-loss distance.

This helps traders avoid risking too much on a single trade.

Step 2 — Understand Drawdown

Use the Drawdown Calculator to understand how losses affect account recovery.

As drawdown increases, the percentage gain required to recover becomes significantly larger.

Step 3 — Compare Risk vs Reward

Use the Risk / Reward Calculator to evaluate whether a potential trade setup justifies the downside risk being taken.

Many traders focus only on entries and ignore overall trade quality.

Step 4 — Build a Structured Trade Plan

Use the Daily Trade Plan Builder to organize:

  • Market bias

  • Setup conditions

  • Risk limits

  • Invalidation rules

Planning before entering a trade may help reduce emotional decision-making.
