How the EU50 (Euro Stoxx 50) position size is calculated

Your risk is the distance between entry and stop loss, multiplied by the contract size. At most brokers one lot of EU50 (Euro Stoxx 50) is worth 1 EUR per point, but some use 0.1, 10 or more.

Lots = (balance × risk %) ÷ (|entry − stop| × contract size)

Why does my lot size look wrong?

• Contract size. This is the usual cause. 1 EUR per point per lot is common, but brokers and prop firms set their own. In MetaTrader, right-click the symbol in Market Watch and open Specification to see yours, then enter it above.
• Account currency. EU50 (Euro Stoxx 50) is priced in EUR. Pick your account’s currency so the risk is converted correctly.
• Rounding. Results round down to 0.01 lots so you never risk more than you set. Check your broker’s minimum lot step.
