Futures Risk Calculator
The "Futures Risk Calculator" is designed to assist traders in calculating the number of contracts to risk based on their account size, risk percentage, and stop loss level. This script provides a convenient way for traders to determine their position size in futures or other instruments where contracts are used.
The script prompts users to input their account size, risk percentage, entry price, and stop loss price. It then calculates the stop size in points, risk in dollars, and the number of contracts to risk. These calculations are based on standard risk management principles commonly used in trading.
