Free futures position size calculator for ES, NQ, MNQ, MES, CL, GC and more. Size contracts from account risk, stop distance and tick value with no signup.
Futures trading is leverage-heavy. The fastest way to avoid over-sizing is to calculate position size from your stop distance, tick value, and risk percentage. TickPilot does that math instantly so you can trade with consistent risk across ES, NQ, CL, GC, and more.
If you already know your entry, stop, and account size, you can get a contract count in seconds. If you do not, start with the delayed reference price when available, then replace it with your live platform price for precision.
TickPilot can load a recent delayed market reference after the page opens so you do not have to start from a blank field. It is a convenience value, not an exchange-certified settlement and not a live executable quote.
Replace the reference with the current price from your broker or trading platform before relying on the calculation for an actual trade.
A proper futures risk calculator combines tick value, contract multiplier, margin requirements, and account size. Traders who skip position sizing often over-leverage and hit daily loss limits quickly. TickPilot is designed to make risk math fast, repeatable, and clear-without forcing you to dig through contract specs.
Each calculator page includes the contract tick size, tick value, margin estimate, and exchange. You can compare micro vs. standard contracts, see how much a single point move is worth, and adjust risk for prop firm rules before you ever place the trade.
The result is a faster pre-trade checklist: pick a contract, confirm the current market price, enter your stop loss, and let the position size calculator do the rest.
Futures profit is calculated by: (Exit Price - Entry Price) x Tick Value x Number of Contracts.
