Each MCX contract has a specification: the commodity, the lot size, the tick size and the expiry. These decide what one price move is worth in rupees.
Work it out, do not guess
Multiply the lot size by the tick size to get the value of one tick. Then compare the usual daily range (see ATR in the glossary) with your risk limit. If one normal move is larger than your risk budget, the position is too big for you.
Always take the current lot sizes, margins and expiry dates from the exchange, because they are revised from time to time.
