Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate the SOL position size?
Divide the accepted risk by the stop distance in dollars. A $20 risk with a $2.50 stop distance means 8 SOL, whatever leverage you pick and whatever your account balance is.
What stop-loss distance fits SOL volatility?
SOL regularly moves 5%-8% in a day, so stops closer than 3%-4% get hit by noise. Sizing from an honest stop distance is what keeps the risk constant across SOL, BTC and ETH trades.
Should I use cross or isolated margin for SOL?
Isolated margin caps the loss at one position — safer for volatile SOL where a spike can skip your stop. Cross margin shares the whole balance and survives wicks better but risks everything. The calculator estimates the isolated liquidation so you see the worst case upfront.
