Understanding the Plots
Candle Size Plot
The main plot shows the size of each candle (high minus low) in green by default.
This helps you visualize the volatility and identify significant price movements.
Moving Averages
If enabled, two moving averages are plotted on the candle size chart to help you understand the average candle size over different periods.
MA 1 (blue by default) and MA 2 (red by default) provide a smoothed view of the candle sizes.
Alert Thresholds
The upper and lower thresholds are plotted as dashed lines (orange by default).
The upper threshold indicates an unusually large candle size, while the lower threshold indicates an unusually small candle size.
Alerts and Background Colors
When the candle size exceeds the upper threshold, an alert is triggered, and the background color changes to a semi-transparent orange.
When the candle size falls below the lower threshold, an alert is triggered, and the background color changes to a semi-transparent orange.
These visual cues help you quickly identify significant candle sizes.
Example Settings
MA Length 1: 14
MA Length 2: 28
Alert Threshold: 1.5
MA Color 1: Blue
MA Color 2: Red
Candle Size Color: Green

Candle size in pipsDescription
Enhance your trading strategy with precision using this script, designed to measure the range of a candle from wick to wick in pips. Whether you're implementing a specific pip requirement within a candle for your strategy, or simply seeking to better understand market dynamics, this tool provides valuable insights. The script is calculating the amount of pips between the high and the low then compares it to the minimal size you declared. If the amount of pips is more or equal to minimal size it will show the label.

Alert Functionality: Opt to receive alerts by checking the checkbox (default: false).
Customizable Pip Threshold: Tailor the script to your needs by setting the minimum required pips to display on the screen (default: 12).
Different shape: circle, triangle up, triangle down, none
How to Use
Personalize your trading approach by integrating this script with your preferred strategy. For instance, in my strategy involving a 3M continuation, I leverage this tool to determine the pip count of the M15 candle before making entry decisions.
Note: Ensure you understand your strategy's requirements and adjust the script settings accordingly for optimal result s.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or require further assistance in maximizing the utility of this script.
Candle Tick SizeHello everyone!
I dont think it exists, I couldnt find it any way I searched, maybe it is part of a bigger indicator. This is a really basic code, all it does, it shows the tick/pip size of the candles forming. You can adjust on how many candles should it show. Also because the code counts the point size of the candles from high to low, you can adjust that how many ticks are in one point, like for ES and NQ 4 ticks to a point, which is the basic setting. It helps me with entrys when I calculate the contract size so my risk/reward stays pretty much the same depending on the candle size for my entrys.

Section Summaries
Table Settings: Allows users to select position and font size from drop-down menus. Displays current settings and potential profit/loss values.
Price Points: Users can set their Entry and select whether they want to include a DCA entry, Stop Loss price, Liquidation Buffer %, Take Profit levels and the amount of position to close at each level.
Risk Management: Users fill out their Account Size, set their Risk % (or fixed $ amount) for each Entry, set Manual Leverage, or allow the indicator to automatically choose the leverage based on the Stop Loss price distance from Entry and the Risk % per Entry.
User-Input Descriptions
DCA Price: The price at which users initiate their second, equally sized and leveraged position when using a Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) strategy. Upon reaching the DCA Price, the Entry Price adjusts to the Avg Price, calculated as the midpoint between initial and DCA entries.
Liquidation Buffer: A pre-set percentage that determines how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This assists the Auto Leverage feature in optimizing the leverage amount according to risk tolerance.
Risk per Entry: The proportion of the account, in % or a fixed dollar amount, that users are willing to risk for each trading position. If DCA is checked, this will assume users are entering with half of the total position size per entry.
Automatic Leverage: Auto Leverage automatically determines the optimal leverage level for a trade based on the user's Stop Loss price distance from the Entry point and the user-defined risk percentage per Entry. It also considers a user-defined Liquidation Buffer, which is a preset percentage determining how close to the Stop Loss a position can get before it's liquidated. This tool allows traders to optimize their leverage amount according to their risk tolerance.
Max Leverage: The highest leverage level users are willing to use, even if the exchange permits higher. This limit applies when the Auto Leverage feature is enabled.

Column 2 - Percent risk on the trade.
Column 3 - Amount of shares that can be traded (calculated from account size, risk and selected stop placement).
Green color is intended for long position, stop at the low of the candle.
Red color is intended for short position, stop at the high of the candle.
Middle value can shift between either color since its measured from open to close.
Position Sizing CalculatorThis script calculates the position size base on the stop loss price, entry price, and the percent of equity willing to risk.
Formula:
(Asset Quantity) = (Amount Risk at Trade) / (Price Difference Between Entry Price and Stop Loss)
or
Position size = (% Equity at Risk) * (Equity) / (Entry Price - Stop Loss Price)
Position Size Calc. (Minimalist)This is a simplified position size calculator in the form of a table.
The reason I published this script is because all other position size calculator scripts try to provide way too much when it should be much simpler, position in strange areas of the chart and leave unwanted chart pollution.
This is a bare-bones functional table that takes your risk level, entry, stop and take profit as inputs, and calculates your loss, profit and required position size for your chosen risk level as a result.
Inspired by a table type position size calculator made by DojiEmoji design/color-wise. Functionally different however.
I hope you find this script useful and include it on your trading journey.

Pot SizeA little FREE script - which may help people set their trade size and stop levels for bitcoin trades.
NOTE :- This script conveys information that requires "indicator arguments" to be turned on.
TO USE :- To adjust to your requirements, click the cog wheel next to the indicator, and adjust "POT SIZE" (how much dollar you have), "RISK %" (the percentage of your dollar portfolio you would like to risk on this trade) and "BITCOIN AMOUNT" - until the short and long 'stop' lines are in the right place in your estimation, for a stop loss that represents the risk you want in relation to the current price for this trade.
The script takes its reference from the closing price; and doesn't include calculations for spread, fees, true range, and volatility etc. That is left open for anyone to add that if they wish. Anyone using this has to make their own adjustments for such considerations not being in this script and therefore make their own compensations.
Anyone wanting to change anything (because values don't go far enough for you) but doesn't know pinescript, can change the numbers next to "defval", "minval", "maxval", and "step" to their suiting in the script itself.
If you use this, you have to work out for yourself if it is useful for you or not. If you depend on it, you must have your own confidence that the calculations in it are acceptable and correct for your use, and you should check yourself and seek advice before trusting it. I convey no confidence in these calculations or this script, and they must be assumed to be acceptable by you if you use it.
Thanks

Position Size CalculatorThis is a script to make calculating position size easier. It calculates position size as a percentage of account balance and Risk/Reward based on input values of entry, exit, stoploss and shows the R/R box similar to tradingview's R/R tool. There is an option to toggle showing label and choosing of label text color.
Have to enter the following inputs in order for it to work properly
1. Account Balance : Account balance in either whatever is base currency of account
2. Risk % : Percentage of account balance to lose if stop is hit.
3. Entry
4. Stoploss
5. Target Price
Notes:
- Target Price is required for calculating R/R but is not necessary to calculate position size.
- Formula to calculate position size is : Balance * Risk % / SL %
- Formula to calculate R/R is : TP % / SL %
- SL % = ( Entry - SL ) / Entry * 100
- TP % = (TP - Entry ) / Entry * 100
Thanks to u/Chonky_ for help with feedback.
Distribution Position Size Panel
This panel is an example position size panel that I prepared and I consider the rates reasonable.
I have prepared this panel so that the money allocated to the investment ends 14 consecutive signals.
The sum of the ratios is 100 units.
You can adjust your positions according to this panel.
The first steps are low rates.
If the phrases are strong, you can specify a position size from the lower digits.
Likewise, when you make a big profit, you can empty your profits in the lower steps.
In the event of a color change, you can return to the beginning or lower limit.
NOTE: This script is an auxiliary command to the distribution blocks script,
if you want to use another script, you can add distribution days to yours.
14 th stake does not appear in the preview, you need to reduce the size of the distribution blocks indicator slightly.
Rafael Zioni's examples of the panels helped a lot, thanks to him.
Stay tuned ! Regards , Noldo.
Custom position sizerThis is a simple script to aid with determining position size.
Inputs are the intended entry price, desired risk (expressed as % of account at risk), account value, and leverage factor.
To use the script;
1. Identify and update the entry price (yellow line on the chart)
2. Update with desired risk
3. Update with account size
4. Adjust the leverage value until the stop loss (red line on chart for long positions, green line for short positions) reaches the desired value/location on the chart
The label will then update to show the required position size for the trade.
Customizable Trend Direction (Open-Source)Hello everyone
I received a ton of requests for this script so I decided to share it
I did it for a client who didn't want to pay (you can all blame... or even thank him for this script) in the end and I don't want to sell it on my website.
Not because it's not interesting but because my website will be a place to showcase and rent the Algorithm Builders mostly
What is it about?
Basically, it shows how you could convert a plotshape into a label.new object. Very interesting if you want someday to convert your V3 script into V4
With this script, it shows that you can in V4 ( but couldn't do in V3 ) do the followings :
- change dynamically the size (from tiny to huge) of any object
- change dynamically the text (from whatever to whatever) of any object
Screenshot of the user interface
imgur.com
Other use cases
I did it with the Trend Direction but could work with anything really.
- Any indicator with a visual signal. You can know personalized from a user interface the text, size and also the vertical shift. I didn't do it for that one but label.new takes a (x,y) coordinates so playing with y is fairly easy to achieve a dynamic vertical shift
- Even with this script Plotchar-How-to-draw-external-symbols-on-a-chart/ but would require to be updated with a label.new object and with a shape.none parameter so that we'll only see the icon/symbol displayed
- The colors also can be change dynamically using presets Presets-Selector-FRIDAY-NIGHT-CHALLENGE/ . If you have an indicator showing a BULLISH and a BEARISH signal, then you could, for instance, configure colors presets according to the timeframe of the chart or the indicator input, etc (sky is the limit ^^)
Be sure to hit the thumbs up at it motivates me to research what Pinescript can offer and share with the community
