Position Size Pointer

Risk Management is one of the most important tools for a trader, which is why we have created the Position Size Pointer. The Position Size Pointer is an indicator specifically designed to show the user exactly how much of his money he can invest safely.

Using the Position Size Pointer

Using the Position Size Pointer is very simple. Just enter the Risk percentage intended for a single transaction, place the StopLoss Line (sl_line, red by default) where you want your Stop Loss to be set, and the TakeProfit Line (tp_line, blue by default) where you want your Take Profit to be set.

The indicator will do all the rest for You. Not only are the amount of Pips and Currency Rate taken into account but also the Spread: so you won't need to bother with any of this. To move either the TakeProfit or StopLoss Lines you should first double click one on them. If you do not wish to set a take profit level, put the TakeProfit Line on the "Wrong side" of the current price (under the current price for long position, and above for short position): it will then be set to 0.

After you do this the Position Size Pointer will show you how many lots you can invest without exceeding your intended risk percentage. It will also provide you with valuable additional information about you current transaction such as:

Parameters Confirmation (Buy/Sell, SL price, TP price).
The TP/SL Ratio and the SL & TP Values in points.
Confirmation of set risk percentage and the risk shown as a currency value based on the intended amount of risk.
The Exchange rate, based on the quote currency in relation to the account currency.
The Spread of the actual currency pair.

The Position Size Pointer can be personalized by changing Size, Color and Display Location, in addition to enabling or disabling information shown.

All changes and price updates take effect automatically after every new tick. If you are unsure if the most recent tick came since your last change you can also update it manually, by refreshing the chart or changing the interval back and forth.
