Profit Calculator
Model what a trade makes or costs across entry, exit and size — before you take it.
What the trade comes to
Entry, exit, size and direction. The result lands in your account currency, with the move shown in pips beside it.
Run the loss first
Put your stop in the exit box before you put your target there. The number that comes back is the one you have to be able to live with.
Direction changes the sign
A short profits when the price falls. Switching buy to sell flips the result without touching either price.
Gross, not net

Fill in an entry, an exit and a position size to model the trade.
A plan is two numbers
What the trade makes if it works, and what it costs if it does not. Everything else is commentary.
Compare the two ends
Model the target and the stop, then look at the two numbers side by side. A setup that risks three to make one is a bad trade even when the analysis behind it is good.
Long holds carry a swap
Positions held past the daily rollover pay or receive interest on the rate differential, charged at triple rate on Wednesdays. Negligible on a day trade, material on a position held for weeks.
Decide it before you are in it
Working the numbers while you are calm is the whole point. Once a position is open and moving, the exit you planned is much harder to argue yourself out of.
