Change value risk on AdvancedRiskReward Add

[Ricked]

Hi, sorry for my English first because i'm French.

I just donwload AdvancedRiskReward add on NT8, this is a very good tool !
Can i change RiskPercent value ? I mean i want to use 0.3% or 0.7% Or something under 1% but i can't.

Do you think it's possible to change something on the code ?

Thanks

Ricked

Hi Ricked, thanks for posting. You will need to edit the Range of the public property. On line 1949, change it to this:

[Range(0, double.MaxValue)]

Thank you ChrisL, i juste chance value to 0 but nothing better. I suppose i need to restart NT8.

There is an other problem, When i draw RR with AdvancedRiskReward for exemple SL 30 pts, in réality is 60 pts. Any idéa ?

Doesn't works Chris with for exemple 0,3% risk. under 1% it's impossible

I tried to figure out today why the point value displayed on the SL and TP is half of the actual value. But I do not understand.

Hello Ricked,

I had a look here since I had converted the script, but I do not have too much else to add. Since the script is a conversion it was built to match the NinjaTrader 7 version, it is not an original script of our own.

I can comment that changing the Range attribute will allow saving a smaller value than 1 saved as the RiskPercent property, and this value does not get overwritten by the indicator.

The script then uses the RiskPercent in various parts of the code. For example:

Contracts = (int)( ((AccountSize * RiskPercent)/100) /PotentialProfit);

Contracts = (int)(((AccountSize * RiskPercent)/100) /PotentialLoss);

If you find that changing the Range attribute to allow values less than 1, and inputting values less than 1 does not give you the result you are looking for, the next step is to then see how that property is used to derive the calculation.

Prints can be used to track what a specific property is when a calculation is being made, so you can break down that calculation and make adjustments if desired.
