Percentage Buy, Target, Stop + Overlay
Percentage Buy, Target, Stop + Overlay
This tool helps traders plan entries and exits using fixed percentage offsets instead of volatility. It plots Buy, Target, and Stop levels on the chart based on a user‑defined entry price and simple percentage multipliers—giving a clear, objective framework for risk/reward.
NOTE: To activate the lines and table, enter a Buy Price greater than zero.
What It Does
Buy Price Input: Manually enter your intended entry price (e.g. planned or executed trade).
Percentage‑Based Target and Stop:
Target Price = Buy × (1 + Target % / 100)
Stop Price = Buy × (1 – Stop % / 100)
Visual Overlay: Draws horizontal lines at Buy, Target, and Stop levels on your chart.
Interactive Table: Displays Buy, Target, Stop and their percentages in a customizable on‑chart table.
Customization Options
