Size a trade so your stop-loss risks only the % of capital you choose. Set the stop yourself, or derive it from the stock's real 14-day ATR (volatility).

Position Size Calculator: how it works

A position sizer converts a risk budget into a share quantity: given capital, the percentage you are willing to lose, and the distance to your stop, it returns the size that caps the loss at that budget.

Formula

Quantity = (capital × risk %) ÷ (entry price − stop-loss price).
