Calculate the part that is actually calculable.
Every result comes directly from values you enter. We do not retrieve quotes, infer a ticker, score a setup or tell you what to do.
Risk Reward Calculator
Calculate risk per unit, reward per unit and reward-to-risk ratio from values you enter. No market data, signals or recommendations.
Open tool →CalculatorPosition Size Calculator
Calculate a hypothetical position size from account value, chosen risk percentage, entry and stop. Inputs stay in your browser.
Open tool →CalculatorBreakout Target Calculator
Calculate a measured-move result from a hypothetical pattern high, low and breakout level. The output is a formula result, not a price forecast.
Open tool →CalculatorATR Stop Distance Calculator
Calculate a hypothetical stop level from entry, ATR and a multiplier you choose. No multiplier is recommended by the site.
Open tool →CalculatorDrawdown Recovery Calculator
Calculate the percentage gain required to recover from a hypothetical percentage drawdown.
Open tool →CalculatorBreak-Even Win Rate Calculator
Calculate the theoretical break-even win rate from a reward-to-risk ratio, before costs and execution effects.
Open tool →What PreBreakout is—and is not.
- We do: show formulas, calculate user-entered values, explain chart vocabulary and use fictional visual examples.
- We do not: publish market prices, tickers, rankings, watchlists, price targets for securities, BUY/SELL/HOLD labels or probability scores.
- We do not: connect to brokers, portfolios or trading accounts.
- We do not: claim that a chart pattern predicts a future outcome.
Learn the geometry, not the hype.
Original synthetic illustrations make it possible to study levels, ranges and patterns without accidentally turning a real security into an example trade.
