Why broker contract size matters
Broker contract size affects your real risk.
For gold and index CFDs, brokers may use different contract sizes, lot steps and minimum trade sizes. That means the same lot size can produce different cash risk at different brokers.
Always check your trading platform's symbol specification before placing a trade.
How position sizing works
Position sizing starts with risk.
First, decide how much of your account you are willing to risk. Then measure the distance between your entry and stop loss. The calculator uses those values to estimate the correct trade size.
Pick the calculator that matches the instrument you are trading so the formula, lot step and broker specification are aligned with the right market:
- XAUUSD position size calculator for gold trades sized from pips and contract size.
- XAUUSD pip calculator to confirm gold pip value before sizing.
- NAS100 lot size calculator for Nasdaq, US100 and USTEC index CFDs.
- US30 lot size calculator for Dow Jones CFD trades.
- US30 pip calculator when your broker quotes Dow movement in pips or points.

Frequently asked questions
Why are there separate calculators for Forex, XAUUSD, NAS100 and US30?
Because each instrument uses different broker specifications. Forex is usually pip-based, gold depends on XAUUSD contract size, and index CFDs depend on point value, minimum lot and lot step.
Are the results financial advice?
No. The calculators provide a mathematical sizing estimate only. You still need to check spread, slippage, commission, margin rules and your broker's symbol specification before placing a trade.
Why can two brokers show different results for the same trade?
Brokers can use different contract sizes, point values, lot steps and minimum trade sizes. The calculator is only as accurate as the symbol details you enter.
