FREE EA TRADING TOOLS

Tools Built for Automated Traders

These aren't generic trading calculators. Every tool here is built specifically for setting up, evaluating, and managing Expert Advisors - because manual trading math doesn't answer the questions automated traders actually have.

Position Size & Risk Calculator

Work out the correct lot size for any trade based on your account balance and how much you're willing to risk — before you click buy or sell.

Account Balance

Risk Per Trade (%)

Most disciplined traders risk between 0.5% and 2% per trade.

Stop-Loss Distance (pips)

Pip Value per Standard Lot

Check your broker's contract specifications for the exact figure for your pair — this varies by instrument and account currency.

Please fill in all fields with valid numbers greater than zero.

Amount at Risk —

Position Size (Standard Lots) —

Position Size (Units) —

This tool calculates position size only. Always confirm your broker's minimum lot size, margin requirements, and actual pip value before placing a trade. Trading Forex and CFDs carries a high level of risk and may result in the loss of your invested capital.

EA Drawdown & Recovery Calculator

Enter an EA's peak and trough account balance from its backtest or live track record to see the real drawdown percentage — and the return actually required to recover it.

Peak Balance

The highest account balance reached before the drawdown began.

Trough Balance

The lowest balance the account fell to during the drawdown.

Please enter valid numbers, with Trough Balance lower than Peak Balance.

Amount Lost —

Drawdown —

Return Needed to Recover —

This tool illustrates the mathematical relationship between drawdown and required recovery only. It does not predict whether an EA will actually recover from a drawdown. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
