About MES

How to size a MES position

Position size = risk in dollars ÷ (stop distance × value per unit). Example on a $100,000 account risking 1% ($1,000) with a 6 points stop: 33 contracts, which risks about $990.

The order panel has a built-in risk calculator: enter your % risk and your stop loss and it sizes the position for you.
