Enter your firm's limits and your risk per trade. See instantly how much you can lose, your lot size, and how many losing trades it takes to breach.
Lot size assumes a major FX pair (about $10 per pip per standard lot). Always confirm the pip value for your instrument.
Every prop firm sets two hard limits: a daily loss limit and a maximum (total) drawdown. Breach either and the account is gone. This calculator turns those percentages into real dollar caps, then shows how many full-risk losing trades you can take before you hit each wall, so you can size positions that survive a losing streak. Prop firm rules change often; always confirm the current parameters on your firm's official website.
It is the maximum your account is allowed to lose. Firms usually set two: a daily loss limit that resets each trading day, and a maximum (total) drawdown for the whole account. Hitting either one ends the challenge or closes the funded account.
Most professional prop traders risk 0.5% to 1% of the account per trade. At 0.5% on a 100k account that is $500, so you could take ten full-risk losses before a 5% daily limit. Lower risk survives longer losing streaks.
Lot size = your dollar risk per trade divided by (stop loss in pips multiplied by the pip value). This tool assumes a major FX pair at about $10 per pip per standard lot. Confirm the pip value for your specific instrument.
