Free trading calculators

Three questions every systematic trader runs into, answered with your own numbers. Everything is calculated in your browser — no account, nothing to install — and each page explains the maths underneath, including what the calculator can't know.

Why these three

They are the questions behind most of our research. A strategy that looks good has to survive its costs — the reason our overnight study turned a real edge into a loss. It has to be sized so the worst stretch is survivable — the subject of our Monte Carlo drawdown article. And if you take it to a prop firm, the rules decide more than the strategy does, as our FTMO simulation found. The calculators let you run the same checks on your own numbers.

Each calculator's maths is tested against a separate Python implementation and against known answers before it is published. They are educational models, not advice: they only know what you type in, and they say on each page what they can't account for.
