Lot Size Calculator Script

The Lot Size Calculator is a user-friendly MetaTrader script that calculates the appropriate lot size for your intended trade directly on the chart. It is designed to be chart-friendly and is highly beneficial for novice, intermediate, and advanced traders alike. By providing precise lot size calculations, this script helps manage risk effectively and plan trades accurately.

How MT4 and MT5 Calculate Lot Size

The MetaTrader platform does not have a built-in feature for calculating lot sizes for intended trades. The Lot Size Calculator script solves this problem by generating the recommended lot size based on your account risk, Stop Loss, and Take Profit levels.

How to Use the Lot Size Calculator

Using the script is simple:

Select the type of trade (Buy or Sell) and execution type (instant or pending order).

Enter the Stop Loss and Take Profit values.

The script calculates:

Recommended lot size for the trade

Stop Loss and Take Profit prices

Possible profit or loss

Note that the script calculates by points, so 10, 20, or 30 pips correspond to 100, 200, and 300 points, respectively.

For example, on a USDCHF chart, if you set a 30-pip Stop Loss and 90-pip Take Profit, the script will generate the lot size suitable for a 2% account risk and display potential profit and loss.
