Forex Bonus Turnover Calculator

By Tim Morris · Updated 2026-06-03 · Calculate the exact trading volume, standard lots, and estimated time needed to clear your forex bonus turnover requirement.

Most forex bonuses come with a turnover requirement (also called a lot requirement or volume condition) that you must meet before withdrawing profits. A "30x turnover" on a $100 bonus means you need to trade $3,000 in total volume. This calculator translates those terms into lots, trades, and days so you can plan realistically.

How this works: At 0.1 lots per trade and 5 trades per day, you clear 0.50 lots/day. To reach 0.03 lots, you need approximately 1 trades over 1 day.

Quick Reference: Lot Requirements

Standard lots needed at common turnover multipliers (1 lot = $100,000).

Bonus Amount	20x Turnover	30x Turnover	50x Turnover
$30	0.0 lots	0.0 lots	0.0 lots
$100	0.0 lots	0.0 lots	0.1 lots
$500	0.1 lots	0.1 lots	0.3 lots

Formula: (Bonus x Multiplier) / $100,000 = Standard Lots

This calculator provides estimates only. Actual lot requirements depend on your broker's specific bonus terms. 1 standard lot = $100,000 notional value. Always read the full terms and conditions on the broker's site before trading with bonus funds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a forex bonus turnover requirement?

A turnover requirement (also called a volume requirement or lot requirement) is the total trading volume you must complete before you can withdraw bonus funds or profits earned from a bonus. For example, a '30x turnover' on a $100 bonus means you need to trade $3,000 in total volume, which equals 0.03 standard lots.

How do I calculate the lot requirement from a turnover multiplier?

Multiply the bonus amount by the turnover multiplier to get the total dollar volume needed. Then divide by $100,000 (the value of 1 standard lot). For example: $100 bonus with 30x turnover = $3,000 volume = 0.03 standard lots.

What is a standard lot in forex?

A standard lot in forex trading equals 100,000 units of the base currency. For a USD-based pair, 1 standard lot = $100,000 notional value. A mini lot is 0.1 (or $10,000) and a micro lot is 0.01 (or $1,000).

How long does it take to clear a forex bonus turnover requirement?

It depends on your trading frequency and position size. A trader placing 5 trades per day at 0.1 lots per trade clears 0.5 lots per day. To clear 30 lots, that would take approximately 60 trading days. Use the calculator above to estimate your personal timeline.

Are forex bonus turnover requirements realistic to achieve?

It depends on the multiplier and your trading style. Low multipliers (5-10x) on small bonuses are very achievable. High multipliers (50x+) on large bonuses can take months of active trading. Always check the time limit in the broker's terms — many bonuses expire if the turnover is not met within 30-90 days.
