What is this tool?

Trade Manager is a floating interactive control panel that helps traders quickly plan and manage trades with proper risk management. It draws Entry, Stop Loss (SL), and Take Profit (TP) lines on the chart, automatically calculates position size based on your risk dollars, and supports common RR (Risk-Reward) ratios. Main Features

• Visual floating panel (draggable) with buttons for quick adjustments
• Risk-based position sizing Ã¢Â€Â” automatically calculates contracts/lots based on your risk amount and SL distance
• RR Presets Ã¢Â€Â” 1:1, 1:2, 1:3 (auto-adjusts TP when SL is moved)
• Adjustable tick steps Ã¢Â€Â” fine-tune SL/TP with 5, 10, 25, 100 ticks
• LONG / SHORT toggle
• One-click "PLACE" Ã¢Â€Â” calculates quantity and fills the ChartTrader order panel
• Real-time line drawing with color-coded labels showing potential profit/loss
• Clear all function to remove lines

How to Use (Step by Step)

1. Add the indicator to your chart
   • Drag "Trade Manager" from the Indicators list onto any chart.
2. Configure basic settings (in the indicator properties)
   • Default Risk ($) → e.g. 200 (how much you want to risk per trade)
   • Default RR → 1:2 (recommended)
   • Colors and line styles as preferred
3. Using the floating panel
   • LONG / SHORT button: Toggle trade direction
   • PLACE button: Sets Entry at current price, default SL/TP, and calculates contracts
   • SL / TP fields: Click + / - buttons to adjust (uses current tick step)
   • RR buttons: Quickly switch between 1:1, 1:2, 1:3
   • Risk $: Adjust your risk amount per trade
   • FILL button: Automatically sets the calculated quantity into ChartTrader
   • CLEAR button: Removes all lines and resets
4. Drag the panel
   • Click and drag the blue title bar ("Trade Planner") to move the panel anywhere on the chart.
5. Hotkeys / Interaction
   • The panel responds to mouse clicks on all buttons.
   • Lines are automatically redrawn when prices or parameters change.

Important Notes

• Works best on OnEachTick mode (already set by default).
• Requires ChartTrader to be open if you want to use the "FILL" function.
• All lines are temporary drawing objects — they will disappear when you remove the indicator or reload the chart.
• Always verify your risk and position size manually before placing real orders.

This tool is designed for fast, visual trade planning especially useful for futures, forex, and prop firm traders who want precise risk control.
