Calculate exact position size based on risk, account balance, entry, and stop loss. Includes leverage and liquidation warnings.
Position sizing is the foundation of risk management in crypto trading. This calculator helps you determine exactly how much to risk on each trade based on your account balance, risk tolerance, entry price, and stop loss level.
The formula accounts for leverage, which multiplies both your potential gains and losses. Higher leverage means your liquidation price moves closer to your entry price — at 10x leverage, a 10% move against you can wipe out your position entirely.
Most crypto traders blow up not because they pick bad trades, but because they risk too much per trade. Professional traders typically risk 1-2% of their account per trade, ensuring that even a string of losses won't destroy their capital.
TargetHit AI signals average +1.90% expected return per trade across 2,900+ publicly tracked signals. That performance is only possible with proper position sizing and risk management.
When trading with leverage, your exchange will automatically close your position (liquidate) if the price moves against you by a certain percentage. The calculator shows your estimated liquidation price and warns you when it's dangerously close to your stop loss.
If your liquidation price is closer to your entry than your stop loss, you're at risk of getting liquidated before your stop loss can trigger — a common mistake that costs traders millions every day.
