Lot size calculator: the arithmetic SizePlan does for you.
Try it with your own numbers. Inside MetaTrader you never type the point value or the lot step: SizePlan reads them from your broker's symbol, so you only choose the risk and drag the stop.
Ledger, in account currency
An estimate. Gaps, slippage and swaps can change the real result. In the terminal, SizePlan takes the loss per lot from MetaTrader's own profit calculation for the symbol, which also covers cross rates, metals, indices and other CFDs.
Five things you do with it, in this order.
SizePlan has no strategy and never opens a trade by itself. It takes over the manual work around an order: before the click, at the click and after it.
Draw the plan
Click BUY or SELL and a plan appears at the market price. Drag the stop and the target where your analysis puts them, or type exact prices.
- Lock the reward/risk ratio, or lock one price with a click on its label.
- MARKET PRICE keeps the plan on the live price until you move it.
- Up to five targets; each earlier one closes its share of the position.
- Lines trigger where you see them: on a Bid chart the Ask-side levels are shifted by the spread when the order is sent.
Choose the risk, get the lot
Percent of equity, percent of balance, a cash amount or a fixed lot. SizePlan asks MetaTrader what one lot loses at your stop, adds your commission and divides.
- Rounded down to the lot step, never up to reach a minimum.
- At the broker's maximum lot, the unused budget is shown and the stop stays put.
- Loss at the stop and gain at each target, in money and in points.
Send it with one click
The active button reads, for example, BUY LIMIT 10.25. A plan that follows the price is sent at market; a fixed entry becomes a limit or stop order, depending on its side of the price.
- No confirmation dialog. The other side's button only switches the plan.
- After a send the plan is put away; the next click brings a fresh one back at the market.
- Optional caps: risk per trade, total risk to SL, daily equity loss, open positions, spread.
Manage every trade
The Trade Manager lists every position and pending order in the account, whoever opened it: this chart, your phone or another EA.
- SL, TP and pending entry editable with steppers.
- Partial or full close, cancel pending orders.
- History for 7, 30 or 90 days, with who closed each trade.
- Open positions drawn on the chart; the eye in the header hides them.
Protect it, automatically if you want
Break-even and trailing are opt-in per position. They run while SizePlan is attached to a chart with trading enabled.
- Net break-even: the stop also covers commission and negative swap.
- Auto break-even in points or R, with an optional offset.
- Trailing by fixed distance, steps, previous candle, swing pivot or ATR.
- The automated stop only tightens. If you move it yourself, automation pauses and says why.
Every trade in the account, in one table.
Select a row and its stop and target are editable at once. The details on the right and the targets strip below follow the selection.

What SizePlan will not do.
A tool that touches your orders has to be predictable. These are fixed rules, not settings. Beyond them it warns and explains; it does not stop you from doing what MetaTrader allows.
Open a trade by itself
No strategy and no signals. Every entry is one you draw and send.
Round the lot up
If the minimum lot risks more than your budget, it says so and sends nothing larger.
Move your stop to spend the budget
At the broker's maximum lot it shows the unused budget. The stop stays where you put it.
Send twice after a disconnect
A request is stored before it goes out and checked after a restart. An unknown outcome is never resent automatically.
Trade straight after install
EnableTrading is off by default. Until you turn it on, the panel only plans.
Guess your broker
No presets. Tick size, lot limits, stop levels and filling modes are read from each symbol at runtime.
