ASYMMETRY OF LOSSES & PROFITS — MT5 Indicator
The concept
Most traders know their loss in %. Few know how much they need to gain to get back to breakeven. This is the mathematical asymmetry of markets: losing 50% doesn't require +50% to recover — it requires +100%. The bigger the loss, the more disproportionate the recovery effort.
| Loss | Required gain to recover |
|---|---|
| -10% | +11.1% |
| -25% | +33.3% |
| -50% | +100% |
| -75% | +300% |
| -90% | +900% |
This indicator makes that number visible, continuously, directly on your MT5 chart.
What the indicator does
It displays in a separate sub-window below your main chart. The curve shows, bar by bar, the percentage gain required from the current price to reach a reference level of your choice (ATH, daily open, fixed price, etc.).
- Curve above zero → price is below the reference, this is the effort required
- Curve at zero → price is exactly at the reference level
- Curve below zero → price has surpassed the reference
Available reference levels
All-Time High (full history) · ATH from a date · ATL from a date · Daily Open · Weekly Open · Monthly Open · Custom fixed price · Previous close
3 independent lines
The indicator supports three simultaneous curves, each with its own full set of parameters: reference type, start date, exact time, color and width. Lines 2 and 3 are disabled by default and can be activated with one click. Compare up to 3 recovery scenarios at the same time.
