Hi, I'm having trouble defining position size in futures mode. What I want to do is to risk a certain % of current equity on each trade, based on the stop loss $$ value. For example in EURUSD, I want to risk 3% of my equity (suppose it is 25000 in the current bar) and my stop loss is 25 pips away from entry point. (Assuming lots of 100k => pointvalue=100.000; margindeposit=1000)
risk=>25.000*0.03=750 =>750/(0.0025*100000)=3lots In the example above I would trade 3lots(contracts), so positionsize would be 3,000. I can do this if I allways risk a fixed amount, but I don't know how to do it referring to the current value of equity which varies bar by bar. How can I do this in AB (I've already filled in the tick size, point value,margin deposit in the synmbol page and selected futures mode)? thanks
