Position Size Calculator Formula
Lots = Risk Amount ÷ (SL Pips × Pip Value per Lot)
Example (USD/JPY): $10,000 account · 1% risk · 38-pip stop: $100 ÷ (38 × $6.34) = 0.41 lots
About USD/JPY — US Dollar / Japanese Yen
USD/JPY is the second most traded forex pair, heavily influenced by Bank of Japan intervention policy, US Treasury yields, and risk sentiment. JPY is a traditional safe-haven currency — it tends to strengthen during market stress. Pip value per standard lot is 1,000 ÷ the USD/JPY rate — about $6.34 at 157.70, so it moves with the rate (the calculator uses the live one).
