Risk Management Calculator determines how many stocks you can buy, capital allocation per stock, and ideal take-profit percentage — all based on total capital, risk per trade, risk-reward ratio, and stop-loss percentage. Professional traders always calculate this before entry.
I have Rp 10,000,000 capital for stocks. Each trade, I can afford to lose Rp 100,000 if the price drops, with stop loss set at 5%. To recover losses, I set risk-reward ratio at 2.
Input Data:
Result:
With this setting, you can buy up to 5 different stocks at Rp 2,000,000 each. If one drops 5%, your loss is only Rp 100,000 — still controlled.
What is risk per trade?
Risk per trade is the maximum loss you can accept if you need to cut loss on one stock. Usually calculated as a percentage of total capital (e.g., 1-2%).
What is Risk-Reward Ratio?
Risk-Reward Ratio is the comparison between potential loss (stop loss) and potential gain (take profit). A ratio of 2 means profit target is 2x the risk. Higher ratios mean more efficient trades.
Why must I use stop loss?
Stop loss tells you when to sell if the stock drops. Without it, losses can grow unlimited. This isn't about pessimism — it's about discipline and capital protection.
What's the ideal stop loss percentage?
There's no fixed number. For swing trading, usually 3-7%. For day trading, 1-3%. What matters: stop loss must be consistent and match your risk tolerance.
