If you trade Gold with fix lot, I prepared for you a simple manual how to calculate the best lot size for your XAUUSD trading account.

Step 1

In our example, the biggest stop loss is 680 pips

Step 4

Step 5

Input your account size, 1,5% as the risk ratio.

In "stop loss in pips" field, write down the pip value of your biggest stop loss - 680 pips in our example.
