Volatility-Dynamic Risk Manager MNQ [HERMAN]Title: Volatility-Dynamic Risk Manager MNQ
Description:
The Volatility-Dynamic Risk Manager is a dedicated risk management utility designed specifically for traders of Micro Nasdaq 100 Futures (MNQ).
Many traders struggle with position sizing because they use a fixed Stop Loss size regardless of market conditions. A 10-point stop might be safe in a slow market but easily stopped out in a high-volatility environment. This indicator solves that problem by monitoring real-time volatility (using ATR) and automatically suggesting the appropriate Stop Loss size and Position Size (Contracts) to keep your dollar risk constant.
Note: This tool is hardcoded for MNQ (Micro Nasdaq) with a tick value calculation of $2 per point.
📈 How It Works
-This script operates on a logical flow that adapts to market behavior:
-Volatility Measurement: It calculates the Average True Range (ATR) over a user-defined length (Default: 14) to gauge the current "speed" of the market.
-State Detection: Based on the current ATR, the script classifies the market into one of three states:
Low Volatility: The market is chopping or moving slowly.
Normal Volatility: Standard trading conditions.
High Volatility: The market is moving aggressively.
Dynamic Stop Loss Selection: Depending on the detected state, the script selects a pre-defined Stop Loss (in points) that you have configured for that specific environment.
Position Sizing Calculation: Finally, it calculates how many MNQ contracts you can trade so that if your Stop Loss is hit, you do not lose more than your defined "Max Risk per Trade."
🧮 Methodology & Calculations
Since this script handles risk management, transparency in calculation is vital.
Here is the exact math used:
ATR Calculation: Contracts = Max Risk / Risk Per Contract
⚙️ Settings
You can fully customize the behavior of the risk manager via the settings panel:
Risk Management
-Max Risk per Trade ($): The maximum amount of USD you are willing to lose on a single trade.
Volatility Thresholds (ATR)
-ATR Length: The lookback period for volatility calculation.
-Upper Limit for LOW Volatility: If ATR is below this number, the market is "Low Volatility."
-Lower Limit for HIGH Volatility: If ATR is above this number, the market is "High Volatility." (Anything between Low and High is considered "Normal").
Stop Loss Settings (Points)
-SL for Low/Normal/High: Define how wide your stop loss should be in points for each of the three market states.
Visual Settings
-Color Theme: Switch between Light and Dark modes.
-Panel Position: Move the dashboard to any corner or center of your chart.
-Panel Size: Adjust the scale (Tiny to Large) to fit your screen resolution.
📊 Dashboard Overview
-The on-screen panel provides a quick-glance summary for live execution:
-Market State: Color-coded status (Green = Low Vol, Orange = Normal, Red = High Vol).
-Current ATR: The live volatility reading.
-Suggested SL: The Stop Loss size you should enter in your execution platform.
-CONTRACTS: The calculated position size.
-Est. Loss: The actual dollar amount you will lose if the stop is hit (usually slightly less than your Max Risk due to rounding down).
Who is this for?
-Discretionary and systematic futures traders on MNQ (/MNQ or MES also works with small adjustments)
-Anyone who wants perfect risk consistency regardless of whether the market is asleep or exploding
-Traders who hate manual position-size calculations on every trade

Position Size calculatorOverview
This indicator automatically calculates the average candle body size (|open − close|) for the current trading day and derives a position size (quantity) based on your fixed risk per trade (default ₹1000).
For example:
If today’s average candle body = ₹3.50 and risk = ₹1000 → Quantity = 285
How It Works:
The indicator calculates the absolute difference between open and close (the candle’s body) for every bar of the current day.
It averages those body sizes to estimate the average daily volatility.
Then it divides your chosen risk per trade by the average body size to estimate an appropriate quantity.
It automatically resets at the start of each new day.
Why Use It
While risk size can be derived manually or using TradingView’s built-in Long/Short Position Tool, this indicator provides a faster, more practical alternative when you need to make quick trade decisions — especially in fast-moving intraday markets .
It keeps you focused on execution rather than calculation.
Tip
You can still verify or fine-tune the quantity using the Long/Short Position Tool or a manual calculator, but this indicator helps you react instantly when opportunities appear.
Live Position SizerThis position calculator locks onto the live price in real time and calculates your lot and quantity size for you. Best for scalping if you don't want to open a limit order. You input all the necessary data (Account size, risk, SL placement, LONG/SHORT position, etc...) It also has a nifty feature of allowing you the ability to see TP brackets (+1R, +2R, +3R).
The best way I have used it is seeing where my potential SL will go before I consider opening a position and inputting that. Then when I'm ready to open a position, I already have it calculated for me.
Risk Calculator You can enter your account size and your stop-loss level, and the calculator will display the risk you are taking both as an actual monetary value and as a percentage of your account. If your account currency differs from the instrument’s currency, you can also input a conversion factor to see the risk in your account currency.

Supported contract styles
Choose a preset for common products (e.g., CFD $1/pt, YM/NQ/ES futures, MYM/MNQ/MES micros) or override the economics yourself. You remain in control of the two key levers:
• $/point — how many dollars you gain/lose per 1 index point per contract/lot
• Point size — how many price units equal 1 index point on your chart (often 1.0, but some brokers use 0.1 or 0.5)
Inputs
• Account Balance ($) and Risk % per trade
• Index: US30 / NAS100 / SP500
• Contract: CFD / Futures (YM, NQ, ES) / Micros (MYM, MNQ, MES)
• $/point: auto from Contract or manual override

• Position size step: rounding (e.g., 1 for futures, 0.01 for CFDs)
• Entry / SL / TP: typed values (snapped to tick), with on-chart zones and labels
• Display toggles for lines and labels
How the math works
• StopPoints = |Entry − SL| ÷ PointSize
• ProfitPoints = |TP − Entry| ÷ PointSize
• Position Size = (AccountBalance × Risk%) ÷ (StopPoints × $/point)
• R/R = ProfitPoints ÷ StopPoints
• Potential P/L = PositionSize × Points × $/point
How to use (quick start)
1. Select Index and Contract.
2. Confirm $/point and Point size match your broker’s specs.
3. Enter Entry / SL / TP for the trade idea.
4. Read the Position Size, R/R, and Potential P/L in the info box.
5. Adjust for fees, spreads, and slippage as needed.
Notes & limitations
• Broker symbols can vary. Always verify $/point and Point size for your instrument before risking capital.
• The script does not place orders and does not generate trade signals; it’s a sizing/visualization tool.
• Results can differ across brokers due to pricing, spreads, minimum lot sizes, and execution rules.
• Use on the intended indices; you’ll see a reminder if you load it elsewhere.
Changelog highlights
• Pine v6, constant-safe inputs, tick-snapping, global fills (no local-scope errors).
• Robust label handling and optional minimal chart markers.

This calculator is designed for long trades only (stop below price at the chart low).
Notes & Assumptions
Does not factor fees, funding, slippage, tick size, or broker/venue position limits.
“Running since load” updates as new lows appear; “Last N bars” uses only the selected lookback window.
If price equals the low (zero distance), sizing will be undefined (division by zero guarded as “—”).
Risk Warning
Trading involves substantial risk. Always double-check every value the calculator shows, confirm your stop distance, and verify position sizing with your broker/platform before entering any order. Never risk money you cannot afford to lose.

Hedging SimulatorHedging Simulator
The Hedging Simulator is a straightforward hedging tool designed to simulate potential profit and loss outcomes from combined Spot and Futures positions in the cryptocurrency market.
Users can define their equity allocation separately for both spot and futures, allowing for flexible and realistic scenario modelling.
The tool also incorporates MNV (Minimum Notional Value) and MTA (Minimum Trade Amount) parameters to estimate order sizes based on symbol-specific trading rules set by exchanges. While the results may differ slightly from actual exchange calculations, the simulator aims to provide a close approximation for general understanding.
📌Note: Crypto-Only - This tool is designed specifically for cryptocurrency trading and is not intended for use with traditional financial instruments.
Entry Price: Users can input custom entry prices for both spot and futures trades to simulate from specific market positions.
Live Price: The entry price fields for both spot and futures support Live Price based on the currently viewed symbol on your chart.
📌Note: In the real market, spot and futures prices are not always identical—there can be a price gap between them. While the difference is typically small, it's important to understand that the live price shown is only for rough estimation purposes and may not reflect the exact trading price on your chosen exchange.
Expecting Market Price: This represents the projected or target price to simulate potential profit and loss across the hedged position based on market movement.
📌Note: Profit and loss calculations exclude all trading fees. Actual results in live markets may vary due to fees, slippage, and exchange rules.
Feedback: If you notice any bugs, errors on calculation, or have suggestions for better calculations or new features, feel free to share your thoughts. Your feedback helps improve the tool and will be considered for future updates.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This simulator is intended for educational and illustrative purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice or guarantee trading results. Market conditions may vary, and all trading carries inherent risks. Users are solely responsible for any decisions made based on this tool and bear full responsibility for their own trading outcomes.

Labels (if enabled):
Green labels (right side): For long positions above your stop loss
Red labels (left side): For short positions below your stop loss
Format: "20T 5x" means 20 ticks distance, 5 contracts maximum
Step 3: Use the Information Tables
The indicator provides two helpful tables:
Position Size Table (top-right):
Shows common tick distances (10, 20, 40, 80, 160 ticks)
Displays risk per contract at each distance
Contract count for your specified risk amount
Total risk with rounded contract numbers
Settings Table (bottom-right):
Confirms your current risk amount
Shows selected contract type
Displays current settings for quick reference
Step 4: Apply to Your Trading
For Long Positions:
Look at the green labels on the right side of your chart
Find your desired entry level
Read the label to see: distance in ticks and maximum contracts
Example: "30T 8x" = 30 ticks from stop, buy 8 contracts maximum
For Short Positions:
Look at the red labels on the left side of your chart
Find your desired entry level
Read the label for tick distance and contract count
Example: "40T 6x" = 40 ticks from stop, sell 6 contracts maximum
Step 5: Trading Execution
Before Entering a Trade:
Identify your stop loss level and input it into the indicator
Choose your entry point by looking at the distance lines
Note the contract count from the corresponding label
Verify the risk amount matches your trading plan
Execute your trade with the calculated position size
Risk Management Features:
Contract rounding: All position sizes are rounded down (never up) to ensure you don't exceed your risk limit
Zero position filtering: Lines only show where position size is at least 1 contract
Dual-sided display: Plan both long and short opportunities simultaneously

Position Size CalculatorPosition Size Calculator - User Guide
A simple tool to calculate optimal position size based on your risk preferences, visualize trade levels, and automatically determine trade direction.
Introduction
The Position Size Calculator is a TradingView indicator designed to help traders calculate the optimal position size for their trades based on account size and risk tolerance. This tool visually represents entry, stop loss, and take profit levels while automatically calculating the appropriate position size to maintain consistent risk management.

Adjusting Your Trade on the Chart
Reading the Information Panel
1. Getting Started
After adding the indicator to your chart, you'll see three horizontal lines representing:
Yellow line: Entry price
Green line: Take profit price
Red line: Stop loss price
The indicator automatically detects whether you're planning a Long or Short trade based on the position of your take profit relative to your entry.
2. Setting Up Your Account Parameters
In the "Position Calculator" settings group:
Account Size : Enter your total account balance
Account Currency : Set your account currency (USD, EUR, etc.)
Risk (%) : Enter the percentage of your account you're willing to risk per trade (e.g., 2%)
Instrument Type : Select your trading instrument (Forex, Futures, Stocks, or Crypto)
Value per 0.01 lot per tick : Enter the value of 0.01 lots per tick (for most Forex pairs, this is $1 per pip for 0.01 lot)
Minimum Lot Size : Set the minimum lot size allowed by your broker (usually 0.01 for Forex)
3. Setting Price Levels
In the "Price Levels" section:
Entry Price : The price at which you plan to enter the trade
Stop Loss Price : Where you'll exit if the trade goes against you
Take Profit Price : Your target price where you'll take profits
If you set Entry Price to 0, it will default to the current price. If Stop Loss or Take Profit are set to 0, they'll default to 5% below or above entry price respectively.
4. Understanding the Visual Elements
Yellow line : Your entry price
Green line : Your take profit level
Red line : Your stop loss level
Green zone : The profit zone (between entry and take profit)
Red zone : The loss zone (between entry and stop loss)
Information panel : Shows all calculations and trade details
5. Adjusting Your Trade on the Chart
The beauty of this tool is its interactivity:
You can drag any of the lines directly on the chart to adjust entry, stop loss, or take profit
If you drag the take profit above the entry , the indicator automatically sets up for a Long trade
If you drag the take profit below the entry , it automatically configures for a Short trade
All calculations and visuals update in real-time as you adjust the lines
This means you can quickly test different scenarios and see how they affect your position size and potential profit/loss.
6. Reading the Information Panel
The information panel displays:
Account details : Your account size and currency
Risk information : Your percentage risk and the equivalent monetary amount
Position Size : The optimal lot size calculated based on your risk parameters
Price levels : Entry, Stop Loss, and Take Profit with distances in ticks
Risk/Reward ratio : Shown as 1:X (where X is the reward relative to 1 unit of risk)
Potential outcomes : The exact amount you stand to gain or lose on this trade
Trade direction : Whether this is a Long or Short trade
Visual Settings
You can customize the appearance in the "Visual" settings group:
Adjust colors for profit and loss zones
Change the transparency of colored zones
Toggle the filling of spaces between lines
Adjust how far the lines extend beyond the last candle
Practical Tips
Always double-check your "Value per 0.01 lot per tick" setting for the specific instrument you're trading
For Forex major pairs, the standard is usually $1 per pip for 0.01 lots
For other instruments, consult your broker's specifications
The indicator works best when you place your stop loss at a logical market level (support/resistance, swing high/low) rather than a fixed percentage
Final Thoughts
This Position Size Calculator helps remove emotion from your trading by objectively calculating your position size based on your predefined risk parameters. It ensures that you maintain consistent risk across all your trades, regardless of the stop loss distance, which is a key component of successful risk management.
Remember: The most important goal in trading is capital preservation. This tool helps you ensure that each trade risks only what you've decided is acceptable for your trading strategy.
