Trading a Percentage of Balance

[Chris9999999]

Im trying to work out how I place a trade using a percentage of balance. Does Ninja have this facility or do I need an add on or do I have to work this out manually?

I trade 0.5% of balance and want it to work out my lot size automatically.

Hello Chris9999999,

Thanks for your post.

There is not an option to do this for manual trades. This can be done with an automated NinjaScript strategy however. See the link below for more info.
