Position Size Calculator MT5 Trading Capital P
- Indicators
- Version: 1.0
Position Size Calculator turns "I want to risk 1%" into the right number of lots in one move: drag the red stop-loss line and read the size.
Right on every symbol
- The loss per lot comes from the terminal's own tick values for each symbol (profit and loss side), so it is correct for forex crosses, gold and silver, indices, energies, stock CFDs and crypto, in any account currency
- Lots are rounded DOWN to the broker's volume step, so the real risk is never above yours, and the real risk is shown next to it
- Minimum and maximum volume checked; if the minimum lot already risks too much, it tells you instead of showing an unsafe size
- Commission per lot can be included
Plan on the chart
- Red stop-loss line: below the price plans a BUY, above plans a SELL
- Green take-profit line with its R multiple and the money at the target
- Pending mode with a blue entry line: BUY/SELL LIMIT or STOP chosen from its position
- Labels by the price scale show the money at the stop and at the target
- Flip side and reset with one click
Everything you need before you click
- Risk as % of balance, % of equity or fixed money (the value converts when you switch, so the money at risk stays the same)
- Position size, risk at the stop, reward at the target, R:R and margin required (estimated from leverage and margin rate, red when above free margin)
Remembers your plan
- Lines and settings survive timeframe changes and terminal restarts, per chart and symbol
Light
- Updates at most four times per second and only redraws what changes
- Movable, minimisable panel in the Trading Capital P style
Inputs
- Risk mode (% balance, % equity, money) and risk value

It is an indicator: it never sends, modifies or closes orders. To send the order with the same calculation and manage it automatically (break-even, partial closes, trailing), see Trade Manager MT5 Trading Capital P.
