How to use it: Enter your account value, the percentage you are willing to risk, your planned buy price and your stop price. It estimates how many shares keep the possible loss near your chosen limit. Example: 1% of a $25,000 account is $250; with $3 at risk per share, the estimate is 83 shares.

What this result meansThe risk budget is a ceiling, not the expected loss. The modeled stop loss is shares × stop distance; the position value is separate and may be limited by available capital. Gaps and slippage can make the actual loss larger.
