| Your scenario | | | | | | | | | | |
| Alternative | | | | | | | | | | |

Budget = account × risk / 100. Units = budget / absolute entry-to-stop distance. Notional = units × entry. Long stops must be below entry; short stops above.

## Worked examples

| Case | Direction | Account | Risk | Entry | Stop | Budget | Units | Notional |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| R1 | Long | 10000 | 0.5% | 100 | 95 | 50 | 10 | 1000 |
| R2 | Long | 10000 | 1% | 100 | 95 | 100 | 20 | 2000 |
| R3 | Long | 10000 | 1% | 100 | 98 | 100 | 50 | 5000 |
| R4 | Short | 10000 | 1% | 100 | 105 | 100 | 20 | 2000 |
| R5 | Long | 10000 | 1% | 100 | 99.5 | 100 | 200 | 20000 |

R5 exceeds account balance. The result is uncapped; do not discard the tool warning.

A separate fictional R2 exit at 94 would create a 120 USD price loss before fees (20 × (100 − 94)). This is outside the position calculator's output; record it as an assumed execution stress, not a forecast.

Exclusions: fees, slippage, funding, borrowing, liquidation, taxes, exchange quantity increments, available buying power, combined portfolio risk. A stop does not guarantee its execution price.
