What this calculator does
This free grid trading calculator is built for martingale and grid strategies on leveraged markets. It estimates order placement, weighted average entry price, drawdown, and a simplified liquidation level so traders can spot the critical order before the next grid level becomes unsafe.
FAQ
What is Martingale?
Martingale is a position-sizing method where each new order is larger than the previous one by a fixed percentage.
What is Cross Margin?
Cross Margin uses your full account balance as collateral for positions, rather than isolating margin to a single trade.
Does this calculator include funding fees?
No. Funding fees are not included in the liquidation estimate shown here.
DCA Inputs
DCA Results
How DCA works here
This calculator models dollar-cost averaging (DCA) with three building blocks: your starting capital, regular contributions, and an expected return applied over time through compound growth.
Contribution Frequency sets how often you add new money (for example, weekly or monthly). Return Period sets how often the expected return is applied to the portfolio. These can differ — a monthly return with weekly contributions means growth compounds each month while deposits are added on your chosen schedule.
Results are a simplified projection. Real markets vary, and this model does not include fees, taxes, leverage, or exchange-specific rules.

Position Size Inputs
Position Results
What this calculator does
This position size calculator estimates the maximum loss, leveraged notional size, quantity, and margin required from account balance, risk per trade, entry price, stop loss, and leverage. Position Size (Leveraged Notional) is the full contract value at your chosen leverage — not just the raw account risk amount.
Liquidation Inputs
Liquidation Results
Liquidation Notes
The Estimated Liquidation Price shown above is only a rough guide — not a guarantee of where your exchange will liquidate a position.
Real exchanges often differ because of:
- Funding fees that accumulate over time
- Trading commissions on entry, exit, and liquidation
- Maintenance margin rules that vary by symbol and tier
- Exchange-specific liquidation formulas and insurance fund rules
Always verify liquidation levels on your exchange before trading. Use this calculator for planning and comparison — not as your final liquidation price.
Risk of Ruin Inputs

How the simulation works
This tool uses Monte Carlo simulation: it repeats many random trading paths and counts how often each outcome happens. A higher number of runs produces a more stable estimate; the minimum is 100 runs.
Number of Trades is how many trades each simulated path contains. Think of it as “how far into the future” you are testing. More trades give the balance more chances to grow or to fall toward ruin.
Ruin Threshold is the balance level treated as “ruin,” expressed as a percentage of your starting balance. For example, 1% means the simulation counts a path as ruined once the balance drops to 1% of where it started.
On each trade, the model risks a set percentage of the current balance. A win adds risk × reward/risk ratio; a loss subtracts the risk amount. Results depend entirely on the assumptions you enter — they are estimates, not predictions.
About
My name is Ilan, and I am a young engineering student with a long-standing passion for mathematics, investing, and systematic trading.
Over the years, I became increasingly interested in grid trading, position sizing, risk management, and long-term portfolio growth. One thing quickly became obvious: many traders focus on profits, but very few truly understand risk.
Grid trading can be a powerful strategy because it allows investors to participate in the markets without constantly watching charts or making emotional decisions. However, every grid strategy has risks. Questions such as liquidation price, position sizing, leverage, risk of ruin, and long-term expected returns are critical, yet many traders either ignore them or calculate them incorrectly.
The goal of this project is simple: provide free, practical tools that help traders understand risk, manage leverage responsibly, and make more informed decisions.
The calculators on this website focus on some of the most important areas of trading and investing:
- Grid Risk Analysis
- Position Sizing
- Liquidation Price Estimation
- Risk of Ruin Simulation
- DCA and Compounding Projections
Thank you for visiting GridTrading.online.
Why I Built This
While searching for practical tools online, I noticed that many calculators were either overly simplistic, difficult to use, or missing important features entirely. I wanted a place where traders could quickly evaluate the mathematical side of their strategies before risking real capital.
That is why I created GridTrading.online.
These tools are designed to help answer practical questions such as:
- How much risk am I taking?
- Where could liquidation occur?
- How large should my position be?
- What happens if I repeat this strategy hundreds of times?
- What can long-term compounding realistically achieve?
As this project grows, additional tools and features will continue to be added. The long-term goal is to build a comprehensive collection of trading and investment calculators that answer a real problem encountered during practical trading and risk management.
