How it works
Compare calculation bases and operators, not just percentages.
- Define the contract and expiration month
- Convert the price move into points and ticks
- Multiply by the contract's verified point or tick value
- Account for fees, liquidity, and risk limits
Worked example
One headline cannot describe a program. A two-contract position moving 10 ticks changes by 20 total contract-ticks. The dollar result equals those contract-ticks multiplied by the product's tick value.
Risk and common mistakes
Rule versions should be preserved with the purchased account so later changes do not silently rewrite terms.
- Confusing margin with maximum possible loss
- Using the wrong micro or E-mini multiplier
- Ignoring expiration, maintenance breaks, or economic events
- Sizing from desired profit instead of predefined risk
