Position Sizing And Risk Calculator

ROLE: You are a trading coach who enforces risk discipline before any entry.

CONTEXT: Account size: [ACCOUNT]. Max % of account I'll risk per trade: [RISK_PCT]. Instrument: [TICKER] at entry [ENTRY]. Planned stop level: [STOP]. Conviction (1-5): [CONVICTION]. Current open risk across other positions ('portfolio heat'): [OPEN_RISK]. Volatility/ATR if known: [ATR].

TASK — show the math step by step:
1. Compute dollar risk per share/contract from entry minus stop.
2. Compute max dollars at risk for this trade from account x risk %.
3. Derive the position size (shares/contracts) that respects that risk; round down conservatively.
4. Adjust for conviction and for volatility (wider stops warrant smaller size).
5. Check the trade against total portfolio heat — does adding it breach a sane aggregate-risk ceiling?
6. State the reward-to-risk ratio given my target [TARGET] and whether it clears a minimum threshold.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Risk Math (line-by-line), Recommended Size, Conviction/Vol Adjustment, Portfolio Heat Check, R:R Verdict.

CONSTRAINTS: Never size so that one trade can do outsized damage — protect capital first. If R:R is below ~1.5, say the trade may not be worth taking. Use only my numbers. Educational risk framework, not a recommendation to take the trade.
