ATR Risk Planner - indicatore per MetaTrader 5

ATR Risk Planner answers the three questions you ask before every trade: where does the stop go, where are the targets, and how many lots can I trade for the money I am willing to lose?

It measures current volatility with the Average True Range (ATR), places the stop loss a set number of ATRs away from the entry, and lists targets as multiples of that risk (1R, 2R, 3R). It then uses the symbol's tick value and tick size from your broker to size the position, so the same panel works on gold (XAUUSD), oil (Brent/WTI), forex pairs and indices without any manual pip-value maths.

What the panel shows

• ATR value in price and points, on the chart timeframe or any timeframe you choose.
• Stop distance = ATR x multiplier (1.5 by default).
• Spread in points and as a percentage of the stop, turning red when it is too wide for the stop (10% by default), which is handy around news and the rollover hour.
• Risk in account currency: a percent of balance, a percent of equity, or a fixed amount.
• Lot size rounded down to your broker's volume step, plus the actual loss at SL for that rounded size. If even the minimum lot would risk more than you allowed, it says so instead of showing a size.
• Buy plan (entry at ask) and sell plan (entry at bid) with stop loss and up to three targets each.

On the chart

Short level lines with small tags mark the entry, stop and targets for each side to the right of the last candle, buy lines first and sell lines next to them so they never sit on top of each other. Lines can be turned off, or you can plan only the buy or only the sell side.

Notes

• Uses the ATR of the last closed bar by default, so levels don't jump around inside a candle.
• Lot size follows the broker's tick value for loss (SYMBOL_TRADE_TICK_VALUE_LOSS), so cross pairs and non-USD accounts are handled.
• The panel refreshes on every tick and once a second.
• Levels far from price may be outside the visible chart; scroll or zoom out to see all lines.

The indicator only reads prices and account values and draws objects. It never opens, modifies or closes trades. It is a planning aid, not a signal service, and it makes no promise about results.
