In trading, there are two key objectives: to preserve capital and to grow it. The key to achieving both lies in effective risk management. That’s why broker Strifor developed a convenient tool — the Strifor Lot Calculator, which takes over routine calculations and helps traders accurately determine the optimal position size.
How the Strifor Lot Calculator Was Created
Many beginner traders make the same mistake: they open trades impulsively, driven by emotions or the desire to earn more quickly. In doing so, they often neglect risk management and money management rules. As a result, just a few losing trades can wipe out their account.
The Strifor team set out to eliminate human error in position sizing and to create a tool that helps traders protect their capital. This is how the Strifor Lot Calculator was born — a solution based on best practices from professional trading systems.
How the Strifor Lot Calculator Works
-
Set your stop-loss — either in points or at a specific price level.
-
Choose the risk level as a percentage of your account balance, for example, 1% or 2%.
-
The calculator automatically computes the optimal lot size and displays it directly on the chart.
Thanks to its built-in logic, Strifor trading becomes safer — you always know what position size aligns with your risk management rules.
