Does anyone know of or have a risk/position size indicator?
I just want to be able to enter my parameters (entry, SL, TP, risk/reward) and have it spit out the position size I need.
Any thoughts?
Just use MS Excel. If you're going to "enter" your "(entry, SL, TP, risk/reward)" whats left for an Iindicator to figure out?
Maybe try and clarify what you mean, but how is an indicator supposed to tell you WHAT to enter unless you give it the parameters you specified above? At which point...why would you need it?
There are plenty of calculators that will do this for you like this one, but I want something where I don't have to manually update the prices.
smile.
Give the explanation in more detail as to what you're looking for, and I may have a better solution, but...
The above is it, me finks.

From a recent PM...
Not an Indicator, my friend. (I actually wrote a script that will do the same thing on any chart that you drop it on, but, not even sure where it is.) Please see below...
1- Select the "Account History" tab of your Terminal.
2- "Left-click and hold (don't release)" your closed trade onto the chart you just finished trading.
3- Release (drop...the "left-click and hold") on said chart...
c'est voila!
A couple of notes (#1 carries most weight)...
1- I recommend EVERYONE do this. It's a constant "visual-journal" of your trades. Like what you see? Repeat it! Don;t like it? Tweak it!
2- Don't drop (or do, if you want to...deliberately
) your closed trade on a different instrument's chart. ie...if you drop a closed E/U trade an an A/U chart...A/U will turn into an E/U chart...and there is NO undo! So...if you have months worth of trendlines/analysis on a chart...it will be LOST forever if you mix up where you're dropping the instruments.
Other than that...its a built-in MT4 function. Little bit buried, but built-in, nonetheless. I use another broker where it's automatic (if I chose). Within MT4 it has actually become "automatic" for me: I close a trade (or partial there of), and I immediately switch my Terminal to "Account History" and drag that closed trade onto my chart. I want to see it. See what I've done...see how much further I'm prepared to go south/north for my next entry...
Anyway...you get the point. I like to "visualize" as much as possible. Windows 3.x (or whatever it was called)...or Windows 7?
Now "8" is another matter...and they'll bring me kicking and screaming!!!
Queue rant...
Microsoft...and Apple...latter, more so over the former: Don't dictate to me that computing is going "nowhere" but mobile! While Pads, Pods, Phones...Kindles...blah, blah, blah...ad nauseum...are FANTASTIC...in our "world on the go" (not that the FoFac would have a CLUE about that)...when I work...I work at a fakking desktop computer.
So be it. Our handshake was the last machine I bought from you. Good luck fitting my 4 (6) x 24" screens in my pocket, on your "disposable" (upgrade-cycle) machine.
Blow me fuck-face. And..fak you four-eyes!

next time, dont follow anone, as NOONE knows the direction of the TRADE..
I saw that Archie asked her...what happened to your SL...so I closed the window that I was going to quote...and ask. For the record...
gator is a FANTASTIC trader. sisse, Piters...I...ME...Ken the fakking Fen *
)...ALL sound traders!! Listen to NOBODY unless it fits with what you're doing.Scratch my name from the list above, and add a few more that KNOW what they're doing...cloggie...whomever... It works because its THEIR system...individually.
Julia...you NEVER should have gone -155pips! Old Quant even let you know that (ahead of time...and another mind of brilliance!)...and dropped a serious gem in doing so.
Take your time...do your thing... (<--see what I did there? YOUR thing!). Influences are GREAT...and the list above is a FINE list to be influenced from...just don't think you can take an entry from one, SL from another...and you're going to be Gold!
Up to you, Julia. Be yourself...and protect your capital! Then grow it!!!
