OPEN-SOURCE SCRIPT
Position Size Calculator

Position Size Calculator
This open-source Pine Script® indicator helps traders manage risk by calculating position size, margin, and risk/reward based on account size, leverage, entry, stop-loss, and take-profit. It features a customizable table and optional chart lines/labels for clear trade planning across stocks, forex, crypto, and futures.
What It Does
- Position Size: Computes units to trade based on risk percentage and stop-loss distance, capped by leverage.
- Margin: Calculates initial margin in base currency and USD, with account size percentage.
- Risk/Reward: Shows risk-reward ratio, percentage price movements, and USD gains/losses.
- Visualization: Displays results in a table and optional chart lines/labels with customizable styles.
How It Works
- Precision: Adjusts price formatting using syminfo.mintick for accuracy across assets.
- Calculations: Position size = accountSize * (riskPercent / 100) / |entry - stoploss|, capped by accountSize * leverage / entry. Margin = positionSize / leverage. Risk-reward = |takeprofit - entry| / |stoploss - entry|.
- Display: Table shows metrics; optional lines/labels plot entry, stop-loss, and take-profit with percentage and USD details.
How to Use
- Set Inputs:
1- Account Size (USD): Your capital (e.g., 1000).
2- % Risk per Trade: Risk tolerance (e.g., 1%).
3- Leverage: Broker leverage (e.g., 1x, 10x).
4- Entry, Stop Loss, Take Profit: Trade prices.
5- Show Lines and Labels: Enable chart overlays.
- Customize: Adjust table position, colors, and line styles (Solid, Dashed, Dotted).
- View Results: Table shows position size, margin, and risk/reward. Chart lines/labels (if enabled) display prices, percentages, and USD outcomes.
- Apply: Use metrics for trade execution; modify code for custom features.
Notes
- Ensure valid inputs (entry ≠ stop-loss, both positive) to avoid “N/A”.
- Open-source: Inspect or extend the code for your needs.
- Contact the author via TradingView for feedback.
