What is a Lot Size?

In forex, a lot is the unit of measurement for trade size. A standard lot is 100,000 units of the base currency, a mini lot is 10,000 units, and a micro lot is 1,000 units. Choosing the correct lot size is critical for managing risk.

This calculator determines the appropriate lot size based on your account balance, the percentage you want to risk, and your stop loss distance in pips.
