What this calculator assumes
- One point on one lot is $1, which assumes a lot is one contract of the index. Many cTrader brokers quote it that way; some quote ten contracts a lot. The value is editable; read the lot size under Symbol info in cTrader and set what one point moves one lot.
- The stop is entered in index points, the unit NAS100 moves in on the chart.
- Index CFDs carry a wider spread around the open and the close, and news moves them in seconds. Spread, commission and slippage are not in the number.
- The figures it opens with are an example. It runs in your browser and stores nothing.
- A prop firm measures its own rules on its own server, in its own time zone, with its own rounding. This shows where you stand by the arithmetic above; the firm’s measurement is the one that ends an evaluation.
