Tick value is the minimum price change multiplied by the contract multiplier. Point value is the dollar change per contract for a full point. Position risk is the stop distance in ticks multiplied by tick value and contract count, with trading costs added separately.
A worked example
ES has a 0.25-point tick and a $50 point value, so one tick is $12.50. A 10-tick move on one ES contract is $125 before commissions and fees. The same price move can have a different dollar value on a micro contract; select the exact symbol rather than relying on the index name.
What each calculator includes
The value calculator converts ticks and points into dollars. Position size uses the account risk budget and stop distance. Profit and loss uses entry, exit, direction and contract count. Margin is a planning estimate with editable assumptions. Prop-firm payouts depend on the split, fees and limits you enter; the tool does not certify a firm's rules.
Where the inputs come from
Contract specifications are based on CME Group materials. Broker margin requirements, exchange margin and prop-firm policies can change. Verify them with the exchange, broker or firm before acting. The tool does not fetch live market prices or guarantee a trade's result.
Limits and corrections
Calculators are educational tools, not financial advice. A small tick size does not imply a small trading risk. To report a discrepancy, send the symbol, page URL, inputs, expected result and source specification to the contact address.
