Risk Management Indicator
Platform: Trading Station
Type: Indicators
You want to practice good risk management and set stop orders to close out losing trades. One way to do this is to limit the risk of each trade to a percent value of your overall account balance. All you need to know is what percentage you’re comfortable with risking per trade and what distance to set your stop from the open price, in pips.
The Risk Management Indicator is here to help. Once you set your preferred risk percentage, this intuitive indicator calculates a position size for your trade, recommends stop and limit distances, and calculates the total value gained or lost should the stop and limit execute at the set parameters. Trade details are then displayed directly on your charts, giving you easy-to-read access to proper risk management information.
