Position Sizing Tool - Fixed Loss - Multi Asset [RSC]
This script is an Multi Asset measurement tool that can be used to evaluate or keep track of trades. Like the long and short position drawing tools, it calculates a risk reward ratio and a risk-adjusted position size from multiple entries (4 maximum), stop and take profit multiple levels ( 4 maximum) , but it also does much more:
• It can be used to configure long or short trades.
• All monetary values can be expressed in any number of currencies.
• The value of tick/pip movement (which varies with the position's size) is displayed in the currency you have selected.
• It does live tracking of the position.
• You can configure alerts on entries and exits.
█ HOW TO USE IT
Load the indicator on an active chart.
When you first load this script on a chart, you are able specify following parameter
• Account Balance
• Account currency.
And for each asset (Max 8):
• Symbols Ticker (and Exchange)
• Risk per trade (% or Amount base on Account Currency)
• Account Size
• Entry Time
• Entry levels (Max. 4)
• Leverage (only works for crypto) (same leverage for all entries)
• Stop loss level.
• Take profit level (Max. 4)
• Exit level percentage (Max. 4)
Once you have entered (or modify) parameters, the script will draw trade zones and levels labels containing the trade metrics:
• determines if the trade is a long or short from the position of the take profit and stop loss levels in relation to the entry price. If the take profit level is above the entry price, the stop must be below and vice versa, otherwise an error occurs.
• You can change levels by entering new values in the script's settings.
Once you place the position tool on a chart, it will appear at the same levels on symbols that you selected in script setting and nothing showed up for other symbols.
If your scale is not set to "Scale price chart only", the position tool's levels will be taken into account when scaling the chart, which can cause the symbol's bars to be compressed. If your scale is set to "Scale price chart only", the position tool will still be there, but it will not impact the scale of the chart's bars, so you won't see it if it sits outside the symbol's price scale.
█ FEATURES
Display
The position tool displays the following information for entries:
• The price level with “ Stoploss/Entry/Target” sign before it.
• Open or Closed P&L: For an open trade, the "Open P&L" displays the difference in money value between the entry level and the chart's current price.
For a closed trade, the "Closed P&L" displays the realized P&L on the trade.
• Quantity: The trade size, which takes into account the risk tolerance you set in the script's settings.
• RR: The reward to risk ratio expresses the relationship of the distance between the entry and the take profit level vs the entry and the stop level.
Example: A $100 stop with a $100 target will have a ratio of 1:1, whereas a $200 target with the same stop will have a 2:1 ratio.
• Per tick/pip: Represents the money value of a tick or pip movement.
• Their distance from the entry in money value, percentage and ticks/pips.
• The projected end money value of the position if the level is reached. These values are calculated based on the trade size and the currency.
█ Currency adjustments
This indicator modifies the trade label's colors and values based on the final Profit and Loss (P&L), which considers the dynamic exchange rate between base and conversion currencies in its calculations when the conversion currency is a specified value other than the default. Depending on the cross rate between the base and account currencies, this process can yield a negative P&L on an otherwise successful simulated trade.
For instance, if your account is in currency XYZ, you might buy 10 Apple shares at $150 each, with the XYZ to USD exchange rate being 2:1. This purchase would cost you 3000 units of XYZ. Suppose that later on, the shares appreciate to $170 each, and you decide to sell. One might expect this trade to result in profit. However, if the exchange rate has now equalized to 1:1, the return on selling the shares, calculated in XYZ, would only be 1700 units, resulting in a loss of 1300 units XYZ.
The indicator will mark the P&L and the target labels in red in such cases, regardless of whether the market price reached the profit target, as the trade produced a net loss due to reduced funds after currency conversion. Conversely, an otherwise unsuccessful position can result in a net profit in the account currency due to conversion rate fluctuations. The final losses or gains appear in the label metrics, and the corresponding color coding reflects the trade's success or failure.
█ Settings
The settings in the "Trade sizing" section are used to calculate the position size and the monetary value of trades. Two types of risk can be chosen from the menu; a percentage based risk calculation, or a fixed money value. The risk is used to calculate the quantity of units to purchase to achieve that level of risk exposure. Example: An account size of $1000 and 10% risk will have a projected end amount of $900 if the stop loss is hit. The quantity is a product of this relationship; a projected number of units to allow for the equivalent of $100 of risk exposure over the change in price from the entry to the stop value.
You can control the appearance of the tool and the values it displays in the settings following these first two sections.

Alert Functionality: Opt to receive alerts by checking the checkbox (default: false).
Customizable Pip Threshold: Tailor the script to your needs by setting the minimum required pips to display on the screen (default: 12).
Different shape: circle, triangle up, triangle down, none
How to Use
Personalize your trading approach by integrating this script with your preferred strategy. For instance, in my strategy involving a 3M continuation, I leverage this tool to determine the pip count of the M15 candle before making entry decisions.
Note: Ensure you understand your strategy's requirements and adjust the script settings accordingly for optimal result s.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or require further assistance in maximizing the utility of this script.
Candle Tick SizeHello everyone!
I dont think it exists, I couldnt find it any way I searched, maybe it is part of a bigger indicator. This is a really basic code, all it does, it shows the tick/pip size of the candles forming. You can adjust on how many candles should it show. Also because the code counts the point size of the candles from high to low, you can adjust that how many ticks are in one point, like for ES and NQ 4 ticks to a point, which is the basic setting. It helps me with entrys when I calculate the contract size so my risk/reward stays pretty much the same depending on the candle size for my entrys.

Section Summaries
Table Settings: Allows users to select position and font size from drop-down menus. Displays current settings and potential profit/loss values.
Price Points: Users can set their Entry and select whether they want to include a DCA entry, Stop Loss price, Liquidation Buffer %, Take Profit levels and the amount of position to close at each level.
Risk Management: Users fill out their Account Size, set their Risk % (or fixed $ amount) for each Entry, set Manual Leverage, or allow the indicator to automatically choose the leverage based on the Stop Loss price distance from Entry and the Risk % per Entry.
User-Input Descriptions
DCA Price: The price at which users initiate their second, equally sized and leveraged position when using a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy. Upon reaching the DCA Price, the Entry Price adjusts to the Avg Price, calculated as the midpoint between initial and DCA entries.
Liquidation Buffer: A pre-set percentage that determines how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This assists the Auto Leverage feature in optimizing the leverage amount according to risk tolerance.
Risk per Entry: The proportion of the account, in % or a fixed dollar amount, that users are willing to risk for each trading position. If DCA is checked, this will assume users are entering with half of the total position size per entry.
Automatic Leverage: Auto Leverage automatically determines the optimal leverage level for a trade based on the user's Stop Loss price distance from the Entry point and the user-defined risk percentage per Entry. It also considers a user-defined Liquidation Buffer, which is a preset percentage determining how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This tool allows traders to optimize their leverage amount according to their risk tolerance.
Max Leverage: The highest leverage level users are willing to use, even if the exchange permits higher. This limit applies when the Auto Leverage feature is enabled.

Position Sizing CalculatorThis script calculates the position size base on the stop loss price, entry price, and the percent of equity willing to risk.
Formula:
(Asset Quantity) = (Amount Risk at Trade) / (Price Difference Between Entry Price and Stop Loss)
or
Position size = (% Equity at Risk) * (Equity) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss Price)
Position Size Calc. (Minimalist)This is a simplified position size calculator in the form of a table.
The reason I published this script is because all other position size calculator scripts try to provide way too much when it should be much simpler, position in strange areas of the chart and leave unwanted chart pollution.
This is a bare-bones functional table that takes your risk level, entry, stop and take profit as inputs, and calculates your loss, profit and required position size for your chosen risk level as a result.
Inspired by a table type position size calculator made by DojiEmoji design/color-wise. Functionally different however.
I hope you find this script useful and include it on your trading journey.
Risk Management & Position Size Dashboard ProThis version of the dashboard system factors in trading fees to your max risk to account per trade. This comes in handy when trading very low timeframes where trade risk can be tiny and leverage high where traditional position size calculations can yield huge position sizes where just the fees can far exceed your risk appetite. This system calculates your position size factoring in fees so you will never exceed your risk settings. Details below.
****
This indicator is designed to assist traders by instantly providing the necessary information to execute orders based on defined risk parameters. This is not an indicator that tells you WHEN to buy or sell, but HOW MUCH to buy or sell based on your risk appetite. The indicator is compatible with any strategy and any instrument
The indicator uses some great pinescript features, allowing you to drag and drop your levels directly on the chart for instant feedback from the risk management dashboard. Huge timesaver.
Instructions:
1. The first time you add the indicator to your chart, you will be asked to identify your Entry, Stop and Target levels by clicking on them directly on the chart. You can at any point adjust these levels directly on the chart, or you can manually enter them in settings
2. Setup your risk profile in the indicator settings:
(a) Current Capital: Enter the current value of your trading account
(b) Max Risk Per Trade: Enter the maximum % of your Capital you want to risk per trade
(c) Max Leverage: Enter the maximum leverage you want applied to your account. This comes in handy when you trade on very low timeframes where position sizes can become very large. No matter what you enter here, position size will never exceed Max Risk Per Trade
(d) Stop Ticks: Number of ticks to use above/below the identified high/low for stops
(e) % fee per trade: enter your brokers fees here to ensure the system takes this into consideration while calculating position size
(e) Use Current Price as Entry (Market Orders): By default, the system will use the entry level you have selected for limit orders. If you want to use the system to display data based on current price for market orders, select “Use Current Price as Entry (Market Orders)”
(f) number of TP levels: enter the number of TP levels you are planning to use to ensure the fees are calculated for them
3. Based on your stop and target levels, the system will automatically determine if you're looking to long or short and accordingly display all relevant data to you.
4. Display Free Trade Level: toggle this on to display the level you should exit 50% of your position to make the trade risk free
5. Dashboard / Text size / level colours and positions are customisable
The Dashboard displays the following information at all times:
1. Entry
2. Stop
3. Trade Risk (%): Percentage price difference between Entry and Stop
4. Max Risk ($): Currency value of loss if the trade is stopped out
5. Size: Position Size to execute your trade based on your risk profile/appetite
6. Size($): Position Size in currency value
7. Total Fees: Total fees for the trade based on settings above
7. P&L($): Potential profit to your Capital in currency value
8. P&L(%): Potential profit to your Capital in %
9. Risk to account: % risk to account - used as confirmation that the max risk to your account, factoring fees is circa your risk appetite
10. R:R: Risk to Reward Ratio
11. % to Target: Percent price needs to move to achieve your target
Hope this helps you with your trading. I built this as I was tired of wasting time opening up spreadsheets or calculators to execute trades - especially on lower timeframes. Making the code open source so if you do make improvements to this I'd love to hear from you. Also open to suggestions.
Happy Trading!

[TTI] Position Sizing Calculatorb]HISTORY AND CREDITS –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
"Perhaps the greatest secret to top trading and investing success is appropriate money management or what we now call POSITION SIZING" - Dr. Van Tharp, Definite Guide to Position Sizing (Market Wizard Book #1)
For those of you who have studied position sizing you know the power it can have to the bottom line of your portfolio.
WHAT IT DOES ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
The indicator allows you to quickly determine your position size after you decide to open a trading or investing position. Additionally, it gives you targets in terms of R-multiples (R) that tell you at what price level you achieve 2R or 200% return to a given risk.
The indicator also has the option to print these levels on chart for you.
You can use the calculator for the loaded ticker or other ticker that you wish.
1️⃣ Percent Calculator
👉 Choose position size (%) of total trading portfolio. General guideline here is 25% to be maximum (as per Mark Minervini criteria)
👉 Choose stop loss (%) of total position. This means that if you have 100k portfolio and your position size is 25% (25k), how much of that 25k are you willing to lose in order to asses you are wrong.
OR
2️⃣ Dollar Value Calculator
👉 Choose Stop Price ($) - general guidance is to use technical stop price.
👉 Choose Amount to risk ($) - this is the absolute amount of money you are willing to risk on a position
Both 1️⃣ & 2️⃣ calculate the targets and the target prices in order to determine where to take profits
Additionally, you get instant information for:
👉 How many shares you ought to buy
👉 What is the total size of the position to open
👉 What is your stop amount (either in $ terms or in $ of portfolio)
👉 What is the Risk to Total Equity with the current parameters.
HOW TO USE IT –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
✅ STEP 1
Choose ticker and input the price at which you open a position
✅ STEP 2
Choose 1️⃣ Percent Calculator OR 2️⃣ Dollar Value Calculator
Depending on the parameters you use to open a position
✅ STEP 3
Review the table and the Additional data section to see how much Shares you ought to buy and what is the Risk To Total Equity

Pot SizeA little FREE script - which may help people set their trade size and stop levels for bitcoin trades.
NOTE :- This script conveys information that requires "indicator arguments" to be turned on.
TO USE :- To adjust to your requirements, click the cog wheel next to the indicator, and adjust "POT SIZE" (how much dollar you have), "RISK %" (the percentage of your dollar portfolio you would like to risk on this trade) and "BITCOIN AMOUNT" - until the short and long 'stop' lines are in the right place in your estimation, for a stop loss that represents the risk you want in relation to the current price for this trade.
The script takes its reference from the closing price; and doesn't include calculations for spread, fees, true range, and volatility etc. That is left open for anyone to add that if they wish. Anyone using this has to make their own adjustments for such considerations not being in this script and therefore make their own compensations.
Anyone wanting to change anything (because values don't go far enough for you) but doesn't know pinescript, can change the numbers next to "defval", "minval", "maxval", and "step" to their suiting in the script itself.
If you use this, you have to work out for yourself if it is useful for you or not. If you depend on it, you must have your own confidence that the calculations in it are acceptable and correct for your use, and you should check yourself and seek advice before trusting it. I convey no confidence in these calculations or this script, and they must be assumed to be acceptable by you if you use it.
Thanks

Forex Position Size CalculatorThe purpose of this position size calculator is to assist fellow traders in their position size calculations straight from tradingview without having to rely on other apps or websites.
Account balance in the 8 major currency pairs are also available as an input option (i.e. if the account balance is based in pounds, dollars, euros, it can be selected).
Right now this only works on the 28 forex cross currency pairs. At a later date, the indicator will be updated to handle exotic pairs, commodities, and gold.
Gaps % Size DistributionThis tool is to visualize the distribution of gap % sizes, i.e. those things that I marked on the main chart. The tool uses the entire history of an instrument.
The detalization depends on the Binning Step parameter. The lower chart timeframe the lower that step should be.
Good luck.
