Opening of Orders

Feature Request

Coming from the crypt world I found that opening orders by lots is very special. It would be great to just have the option of opening a trade by the % of your total capital for instance + SL/TP %based of that %. Like we have on crypto exchanges. Selecting lots makes the experience slower than I would like.

Best Regards

How does this impact your experience?

    Hello @User . There is “% Risk“ field in the “New Order“ window in the Forex Tester Online app where you can do that. For example, if you enter “2“ in this field then an order will risk 2% of the total capital based on entered Stop Loss and Take Profit.

      Hello Andriy,

      Maybe I’m not understanding how this feature works but I’m having troublr setting things up. If I adjust directly ‘% risk’, lots go crazy. For reference my Equity on this testing is now around 979$, no leverage. Furthermore if I try to adjust stop loss or take profit the % of risk changes, even if the stop loss is lower than ‘% risk’, ‘% risk’ will change automatically to the stop loss you set up. Same thing for ‘$ risk’.

      Am I missing something, or is this a bug?

        Hi @User Thank you for the screenhot. The behavior you’re seeing is expected. The % risk value depends on your stop loss size, so when you modify the stop loss, the % risk will adjust automatically. The same applies when you change the % risk — the lots and other values will update based on the stop loss distance.

        In other words, the % risk, $ risk, lot size, and stop loss are all connected — changing one affects the others. This helps ensure the correct risk calculation for each trade.

        If something still feels off or the calculations look incorrect, please let me know and we’ll take a closer look.
