Thank you, I know this example, but it doesnt help me.

Lets assume I have 100USD on my account (leverage 1:500). I want to open only one position (LONG) on that account (EURUSD).

And I want this position to be stopped out by the broker when market drops for 20 pips.

How can I calculate size for that position?
