Trade Manager & Position Size Tool & PnL Tracker [AlgoScopes] V1

12. Aug. 2023

Position size tool, leverage calculator, trade tracker, money management, trade presentation, risk reward management, margin position, live profit and loss, that's all in this one Trade Manager indicator.

The idea for this indicator comes from two years ago when I was helping a friend who, at the request of 15-20 members from our telegram group, wanted to create a paid group and share our ideas for trade with them (it started as an experiment for just a month or two and ended with 15 months with over 500 trading ideas and signals, with a complete TA chart). If I had time to create this indicator back then for members, it would have been much easier for them to be able to understand and follow the trade idea that was presented through a classic chart, with all the things that a TA must have:
Entry (as well as the reason for entry),
Stop (where the idea for the trade is no longer valid),
Target (with the reason why it is the target for that trade),
Take profits (taking part of the profit on the way to the target).

The majority of members still did not understand how much position to trade, what is the possible profit or loss, if the margin trade is how much leverage to use, in one word “money management”. The most important rule that every trader must follow is "Plan your trade and trade your plan". Learn money management and you are halfway there to becoming a successful trader. It is only after all that, you learn to use some of the "holy grail" indicators. When you have mastered those first two rules, find and master your favorite indicator or trading style (the most important thing is to stick to those two rules). The margin | leverage is also included in the script, for which there are so many dilemmas, arguments and discussions. (that many who still do not understand margin, would trade that it is not passionate if it is controlled). Too much for an introduction, especially since this indicator has so much to explain.

Most importantly, this is an invite-only indicator, and there are so many free indicators on tradingview that can also serve you very well. As far as I know, all exchanges have a calculator tool to calculate the possible profit and loss for each trade you plan to take.
*This indicator is not recommended for scalping on a 1min chart because the script, as you will see, is very complex, so the loading time is longer than with simpler indicators.

💠 ABOUT THE SCRIPT

This script is made to help manage trade. In this one indicator you have the possibility to do technical analysis, calculation for trade (four types: account size risk, trade investment, maximum to lose or position size), monitor 'PnL' (profit and loss in real time) do the calculation in the second, maybe local currency, and set an alert (from entry to any other change in trade). As the script is made for general use, some slight differences are possible for real time 'PnL' or 'ROI'. Always do a test before you start trading with larger amounts. The script is recommended for intra day trading and above. The script is not recommended for scalping on the 1min chart

💎 PROCESS TO ADD SCRIPT TO CHART

Possible trade on break example trade
https://www.tradingview.com/x/35C4Yr9E/

As this script is invite-only, to add it to the chart you need to click on Indicators and find it under the 'Invite-Only' section. When you add the script to the chart (as it is interactive), you will be asked to do 4 steps.
https://www.tradingview.com/x/gpBqFZJ8/
🔸 'SET TRADE TIME'
Click on the chart where the last vertical bar is.
If you are already in the trade, then find the bar|time where the trade started
(you want to follow trade or trade presentation)
🔸 1) 'SET ENTRY'
Click on the horizontal level where you want to place the Entry
🔸 2) 'SET STOP'
Click on the horizontal level where you want to set the Stop
🔸 3) 'SET TARGET
Click on the horizontal level where you want to place the Target

💎 CONFIRM INPUTS

After you have done those 4 steps, a popup will appear with the relevant inputs for the trade.
https://www.tradingview.com/x/exaWPjAo/
You will see that some inputs are already filled (done in those 4 steps before, Entry, Stop and Target). You can correct them if you want (you will sometimes notice a longer 'space decimal' for the trade ticker, but this will not affect the calculator or other parts of the script). You can do the rest of the inputs for trade or finish it later when the script is loaded on the chart (it is recommended to fill in 'Trade Type' and 'Amount'. Don't forget to click on the "Apply" button to load the script on the chart.

💎 INDICATOR LOADED ON CHART

https://www.tradingview.com/x/mUnXceW1/
• When the indicator is loaded on the chart (regardless of whether it is a new trade or a trade that has already started), the following items are displayed by default:
🔸 'Trade Table' shows all relevant information for the trade
🔸 'Trade Box' with lines for Entry, Stop and Target (Take Profits if enabled)
🔸 'Trade Box Labels' with relevant data
• The Entry label is also the trade status label, and if the trade is not active, by default it is the Entry color

https://www.tradingview.com/x/Ag4nl6LW/
If the trade is active or when a new trade reached Entry, several new things are noticeable:
• Entry|Status label as well as status row in table will change color as well as 'Entry Reached' text
• Several extra columns relative to trade will be added to the Entry|Status label
• 3 new columns will also appear on the Trade Table (Live PnL, Live min PnL and Live ROI)
• If Trail Stop is enabled, the label will change the text to T.Stop and change color depending on whether it is in loss or profit.
• If Trail Stop is enabled, inside Trade Box trail line it will follow price action inside the box, while the label will always be fixed at the initial level
• A vertical colored line will appear on the right side of the Trade Box (depending on whether the trade is in profit or loss) which shows as in the Trade Table like Live PnL
