How to Calculate CHF/JPY Position Size

01

Set Your Account Risk

Enter your account balance and maximum risk per trade (0.5%–2% recommended). For a $10,000 account risking 1%, your dollar risk is $100.

02

Define Your Stop Loss

Enter your entry price and stop loss level. The calculator measures the distance in pips and applies the correct pip value for CHF/JPY automatically.

03

Read Your Lot Size

The calculator outputs your exact lot size in standard lots, your R:R ratio, and your total risk amount. Adjust stop distance until the numbers fit your plan.

Position Size Formula

Risk Amount ($) = Account Balance × (Risk % ÷ 100)

SL Pips = |Entry – Stop Loss| ÷ Pip Size (0.01)

Lot Size = Risk Amount ÷ (SL Pips × Pip Value per Lot)
