Risk constant USD per %/ATR

Very similar with the Risk % capital per %/ATR, you can risk a constant amount of dollars (instead of % capital) for a specific price movement. After each trade, it will calculate your new capital to size accordingly the next orders.

For a x% price move, you will risk y dollars.

Ex 1: Capital is 10 000$, [A risk of 200$] [At 1% of price change] Additionnal infos: In the Exit position rules Box, stop loss is set at 1% [Market stop at 1%] and Bitcoin market price at entry is 20 000$. We want to long.

In that example, we want to risk a maximum of 200$ each times the market drops by 1%. To calculate our initial long value position, we consider our stop loss to be 1% lower market price at entry.

If the market drops 1% and triggers our stop loss, the position will be closed at 19 800$ Bitcoin price. Which represents a 200$ drop.

To size accordingly, the bot will open a long position of 20 000$. If the position is stopped, the loss will be 200$.

Ex 2: The bot won the last trade, for 5 000$ profit. The capital is now valued at 15 000$. [A risk of 500$] [At 1% of price change] Additionnal infos: In the Exit position rules Box, stop loss is set at 4% [Market stop at 4%] and Bitcoin market price at entry is 25 000$. We want to long.

The bot want to enter a long position at 25 000$ Bitcoin price, with a maximum risk of 500$ per percent. The bot will open a long position of 50 000$ (25000 * (500 / 25000) / 1%). The market drops 4% and triggers our stop loss. The total loss is 2000$ (50000 * 4%) (without fees and slippage).

That feature is not a triggers out or a stop loss. It is only designed to calculate your initial position size accordingly to a certain risk. For a better synergy, you must consider your conditions on the Exit position rules Box.
