Position Sizer (% of Acct & Shares Req)

58
  • This indicator calculates % position size and share quantity required based on total capital and user-defined risk percentages
  • This indicator differs from the Shares Qty indicator in that it is based on %'s rather than a user-defined, fixed dollar amount to risk (for those who prefer to calculate risk in this manner instead)
  • Tracks real-time Low of Day (LoD) during regular trading hours (RTH) for accurate stop placement
  • Current price as well as output rows 2 and 3 can be toggled on/off, per preference
  • Allows stop loss selection between LoD, Low of Week (LoW), and Prior Day Low (PDL)
  • Keeps data updating intraday to reflect changing LoD and price conditions
  • Provides a second “Stop Loss Compare” dropdown to compare two stop methods side by side
  • Displays all results in a dynamic on-chart table that updates with live prices
  • Shows capital amount, stop type, stop price, and share counts for three risk levels
    =========
  • Risk rows displayed as: [x%] Risk of Cap Amt: [pos. size as % of Cap Amt], [# shares req.]
