    Not a problem. Rather than adding a new parameter just change the TP based on RR % rather than a multiplier of the SL. Just a thought.

    But yes, for now I'll keep adjusting the TP line, still works fine.

    Thanks.

    That would an obvious solution, but it would confuse the hell out of other traders - those who got used to the current behavior of the button.

    Position Size Calculator version 2.19 is out. It fixes three annoying bugs:
    1. Division by zero error when attaching PSC to a trading symbol with margin/profit currency different from the account currency and when the conversion currency pair's data is not available yet.
    2. Panel hiding behind the chart's borders when resizing the chart window.
    3. Old panel's object remaining on the chart when loading a template with this indicator.

    Hello Mr Enivid I'm new member here in the forum and this is my first post I want first to thank you for your perfect indicator
    and second I have a suggestion to it can you include another two options to your indicator traling stop and breakeven that
    will make the trader control everything he put the stoploss , take profit , number of pips to trailing stop and in the end a percentage of take profit to move the stoploss to the breakeven
    for example the stoploss 20 pip
    the take profit 40 pip
    the trailing stop 5 pips
    the breakeven 50%
    thanks in advance

    Those are interesting suggestions, but PSC is an indicator, it will not be able to change the position's stop-loss (and thus act as a trailing stop) because only scripts and expert advisors can modify orders in MetaTrader.

    If the AutoTrading is enabled, then your broker does not allow auto-trading in your account. Please contact your brokerage company about it.

    Position Size Calculator has just been updated to version 2.20. It is to fix a rather frustrating bug with default SL/TP values given through input parameters applying inaccurately. If you do not use DefaultSL/DefaultTP parameters, you probably don't need to update.

    Do you mean the BE price for the planned position? For example, we have:
    PS = 1 lot
    Current EUR/USD rate = 1.1200/1.1198
    Commission = $10/lot one-way

    The output BE rate = 1.1204/1.1202.

    Is that it? Or do you mean BE price for the already open position? How would it work then?

    leave it to adding this future bro.., because making separate indicator like iExposure Indicator is only solution for this, unfortunately
    iExposure is missing in MT5 :(

    A minor fix version for Position Size Calculator has been released just now - version 2.21. It fixes some take-profit related glitches and inconsistencies.

    Hello!

    I am impressed by the quality and usefulness of the Position Size Calculator, thank you very much!

    I would like to contribute to the indicator's functionality so my question is:
    Have you thought of uploading the indicator's souce code to a public Git repository such as GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket? It would be much easier to submit pull requests and add new functionality to the indicator.

    Yes, I have thought about it. I have already transferred the development of one other of my indicators to GitHub (Market Profile). I am still not sure if that is a good idea, but I will continue weighing the pros and cons of moving the development of PSC to GitHub too.

    Meanwhile, you can still contribute by submitting your suggestions (including code snippets) here.
