Stop Distance
— of entry
📐 Formula: Risk Amount = Account × Risk %.
Quantity = Risk Amount ÷ |Entry − Stop Loss|. For F&O, quantity is rounded down to whole lots.
Tip: most professional traders risk 0.5%–2% per trade. Anything above 5% per trade is gambling, not investing.

Amount to Recover
⚠ The Drawdown Math Trap: a 20% loss requires 25% gain to recover. A 50% loss requires 100% gain. The asymmetry grows brutally — that's why risk management matters more than performance.

Add open positions on the left to compute aggregate heat.
🔥 Rule of thumb:
🟢 Total heat < 6% — safe
🟡 6%–10% — moderate (caution on adding new trades)
🟠 10%–15% — high (avoid new positions, consider scaling out)
🔴 > 15% — danger zone (one bad day can wipe weeks of gains)

🧾 F&O is Business Income in India (per ICAI/CBDT). It is NOT capital gains — it is taxed at your slab rate. Loss can be carried forward 8 years and set off against any business income.

⚠ Tax Calculator Disclaimer: This is an indicative computation. It uses standard slab rates without surcharge edge cases, AMT, MAT or rebate u/s 87A. Health & Education cess of 4% is applied. Consult a CA or tax professional for actual filing. F&O turnover-based audit thresholds (44AB) are not computed here.

💡 The DRIP advantage: Reinvesting dividends compounds your share count. Over 10–20 years, the yield-on-cost grows dramatically because growing dividends are paid on more & more shares.
⚠ Tax note: In India, dividends are added to your slab income (no DDT). Yields shown here are pre-tax. Effective income post-tax depends on your slab rate.
