How big can your trades be?

Pick a firm and a market. We show the biggest trade that survives a normal day, and which rule stops you first.

How big can you trade safely?

The biggest trade that survives one normal day going against you.

Biggest safe trade on EUR/USD7.2 standard lots1 lot = 100,000 euros · worth $818,331 in total
  1. Room to lose today$5,000
  2. A normal day moves0.611%
  3. So the most you can hold$818,331

Hold more than this and a normal day against you would break the daily loss limit. (Leverage of 1:30 would let you open up to $3,000,000.)
