    Best way to show+calculate PNL?

    Hey, I'm new to NT both Web and Desktop and wondering if there is any way to show $ amounts for TP/SL when calculating position size? One of the screenshots is from Trading View and the other is a custom NT indicator, both showing expected TP/SL values at certain levels. This is a function I've used on both TV and MT4 but can't find it on Ninja.

    Is there anything like this available either directly on chart or a separate panel?

    Or some way to set a static risk such as 1 % or a $-value at the SL level where it would auto-calculate the position size based on it?

    Hello Vilavani,

    There is an AtmStrategyIdentifier that will show the PnL of each stop and target.
    This indicator serves to provide labels for Atm strategies that are present on your chart. Each new Atm strategy will rotate through the colors defined in your Brush Collection. Simply add to a chart, select the data series you want to have labels added to, choose your font and add all the brushes/colors you want […]

    Is this what you are looking for?

    With Atm templates you can use the Parameter type as Currency or Percent.

      Hi,

      Thanks, I was able to get it functioning successfully. While that doesn't provide position size calculations before executing an order, it's definitely a nice addon for seeing the TP/SL values when a trade is active.

      What I was looking for is some kind of an order size calculator / display to avoid manual work calculating contract sizes. For example "risk 1% or $200 at stop level X equals contract size Y".

      But if that's not available, this will do.

        Hello Vilavani,

        I'm not aware of an indicator that provides the PnL before the entry is submitted.
