Kram Dollar Risk Sizing

Flat-Based Risk Sizing Table
Quick, reliable contract counts for any fixed per-point risk—no math required.

---

Overview

This indicator draws an on-chart lookup table showing exactly how many micro-E-mini contracts to trade for a given index-point stop distance. Simply pick your market (MNQ or MES) and your target dollar-risk tier (200 USD, 300 USD or 400 USD); the script handles the rest. Perfect for pre-trade sizing at a glance.

Tips & Reminders

• Points, Not Ticks: Always enter your stop in full index-points (e.g. “8.0”), even though the market moves in 0.25-point ticks.
  
• Validate Your Data: If you ever edit the dollar-risk tiers or add new ones, be sure each contract count equals
  
• “floor( tier ÷ (pointRisk × \$/point) )”
