Shares = floor(base equity × account risk % ÷ (trade entry × stop distance % × FX)). FX is base units per 1 trade unit. Target = trade entry ± (trade entry × stop distance % × reward multiple). The share count is risk-based, not capped to cash. FX is held constant for this scenario; future FX movements, conversion spreads, fees, slippage, taxes, margin rules and borrow costs are excluded. Base-currency prices are converted equivalents, not broker order prices. Whole shares are used; exchange board lots are not enforced. Displayed prices are theoretical and rounded, not tick-size-validated orders.

Scenario estimates, not guaranteed maximum loss or gain.
