Position Size Calculator

Find suggested quantity based on trading capital and maximum risk per trade so one bad trade does not damage the account.

Why quantity sizing is critical

Even good trade ideas can become dangerous when quantity is too large. Position sizing helps you match conviction with risk control. This calculator works backward from total capital and allowed risk per trade to estimate an appropriate quantity.

What the result means

The suggested quantity is based on risk per share and the total rupee risk you are willing to accept. If the number is too small, your stop loss may be too wide for your chosen risk budget. If the position value becomes too large, capital concentration can also become a concern.

Best way to use it

Use this before every swing trade or short-term trade. It creates a repeatable framework: define entry, define invalidation, define risk budget, and only then decide quantity. This is one of the simplest ways to improve consistency in trading.
