That's generally a bad idea. Your stop-loss should depend on the market conditions (chart levels, fundamental factors, sentiment analysis, etc.), and the position size should depend on the stop-loss. Not vice versa.

Generally I have ideas about direction where the market will go, but not about the size of the move. What should I do in this case?

A gambler (who believes they are always right) will want to bet the maximum their wallet will stand

With that in mind, I created an equation based on current market conditions that calculates the absolute maximum bet size currently available ... I then decide what percentage of that I want to risk

If you bet with pennies you will only ever win pennies
