Position Size FT

前天

Why you should use this indicator:

• It gives you the exact position size in seconds, based on your equity, your risk %, and your real stop location, so you don’t guess.
  
• It keeps your risk consistent even when the stop is wider or tighter, so one “normal” trade can’t become a big loss.
  
• It blocks stupid mistakes like reusing the last size, moving the stop, or oversizing when you feel confident.
  
• It makes drawdown control automatic: drop from 1% to 0.5% or 0.25% and the tool enforces it without you negotiating with yourself.
  

This tool is your “no excuses” position sizer.

You tell it your account size and how much you’re willing to lose on one trade. Then, for every chart, it calculates the position size that matches your stop distance. So your risk stays the same even when the stop is wide or tight.

If you use it on every chart, you stop doing the two things that destroy accounts: guessing size and oversizing.

Account Equity ($)
Set this to your current account value. Update it at least once a week, or after a big win or loss. If this number is wrong, every size it prints will be wrong.

Risk per Trade (%)
This is the percent you are willing to lose if the stop gets hit.

My recommendation if you trade my system
0.25% if you’re new, or if you’re not consistent yet. This keeps you alive while you learn.
0.5% as your normal size when you’re trading well.
1% only when your account is at an all time high and the market is clean.
0.25% when you are in a drawdown (especially if you are down more than 10%) and the market feels messy.

Max Position Size (%)
This is a safety cap. Even if the math says you can take a huge position, the tool will limit it.

I recommend 25%.
It stops you from loading too much into one trade, especially on tight stops where position size can explode.

LOD/HOD Lookback Bars
This tells the tool which low or high to use for the stop reference.

Use 1 if you are using the current day Low of Day or High of Day.
Use 2 if you are using the previous day Low of Day or High of Day.

If you switch between those two in your strategy, you should switch this setting to match the setup. Otherwise the sizing will be off.

Table Position, Text Size, Text Color
This is just display.

Pick a corner that doesn’t block your chart.
Keep Text Size on Normal.
Use black text if your chart background is light, and white text if your background is dark.

My clean default setup
Account Equity = your real number
Risk per Trade = 0.5%
Max Position Size = 25%
Lookback Bars = 1 most of the time, 2 when the setup calls for previous day levels
Table Position = anywhere you like, keep it out of the way

The simple rule
If the tool is on the chart, sizing becomes automatic. If sizing is automatic, discipline gets easier. And if discipline gets easier, you stop donating money to the market.
