Questions

M2K in one line each.

How much is one tick on M2K?

One M2K tick is 0.1 points and is worth $0.50 per contract.

What is one point on M2K worth?

$5.00 per contract for every 1.00 move in price. One point is 10 ticks of 0.1.

How many M2K contracts does a $1,000.00 risk budget allow?

It depends on the stop. With a 40-tick stop (4 points) and $1.50 of costs per contract, each M2K contract risks $21.50, so $1,000.00 allows 46, rounded down.

What is the larger version of M2K?

RTY. It moves $50.00 per point against $5.00 for M2K, so 10 M2K carry the point value of one RTY.

Does the calculator place a trade or connect to a broker?

No. It is arithmetic that runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere, and nothing here places, routes or manages an order.
