Compounding – automated sizing of risk related to size of account equity

Interceptor · Thu, 02 Mar 2017 10:44:59 +0000

Hi I’m new to this platform, although have traded for many years. Has anyone devised any code for compounding, i.e. automated sizing of risk related to size of account equity? So, for example, a 100k account, with a preset risk load of 1% per trade would bear an overall ‘worst case’ risk of 1k, but if that account increases in size to 110k then risk increases to 1.1k, with the reverse applying to diminishing equity? Many thanks.
