Indicator Summary
ATR Engine
Length & Smoothing: Choose how many bars to use (default 14) and the smoothing method (RMA/SMA/EMA/WMA).
Median ATR: Computes a rolling median of ATR over a user-defined look-back (default 14) to derive a “scalp” target.
Scalp Target
Automatically set at ½ × median ATR, snapped to the nearest tick.
Optional rounding to whole points for simplicity.
Stop Calculation
ATR Multiplier: Scales current ATR by a user input (default 1.5) to produce your stop distance in points (and ticks when appropriate).
Distortion Handling: Switches between point-only and point + tick displays based on contract specifications.
Risk & Sizing
Risk % of account per trade (default 2 %).
Calculates dollar risk per contract and optimal contract count.
Displays all metrics (scalp, stop, risk/contract, max contracts, max risk, account size) in a customizable on-chart table.
ATR-Based Stop Placement Guidelines
How to Use
Select ATR Settings
Pick an ATR length (e.g. 14) and smoothing (RMA for stability).
Adjust the median length if you want a faster/slower scalp line.
Align Multiplier with Your Setup
For tight-range entries, set ATR Multiplier ≈ 1.0.
For standard trend trades, leave at 1.5.
For breakout/pullback setups, increase to 2.0 or more.
Customize Risk Parameters
Enter your account size and desired risk % per trade (e.g. 2 %).
The table auto-calculates how many contracts you can take.
Read the On-Chart Table
Scalp shows your intraday target.
Stop gives Brooks-style stop distance in points (and ticks).
Risk/Contract is the dollar risk per contract.
Max Contracts tells you maximum position size.
Max Risk confirms total dollar exposure.
Visual Confirmation
Place your entry, then eyeball the scalp and stop levels against chart structure (e.g. swing highs/lows).
Adjust the ATR multiplier if market context shifts (e.g. volatility spikes).
By blending this sizing panel with contextual ATR multipliers, you’ll consistently give your trades the right amount of “breathing room” while keeping risk in check.
