What is RiskReward_Ratio_TradingView_like Indicator?
This indicator visually displays the relationship between your stop loss (SL) and take profit (TP) levels directly on the chart. It mimics the Risk/Reward visualization from TradingView, helping traders assess trade setups at a glance. The boxes drawn for SL and TP clearly show the distance, ratio, and positioning of your open orders or intended entry areas.
It’s a practical tool for both discretionary and rule-based traders who want to quickly validate whether their trade ideas meet minimum reward-to-risk criteria.
How to Use It in Practice
In live or test trading, use this indicator to:
- See your SL and TP levels drawn as boxes on the chart for clear visual guidance.
- Adjust trade entries or exits based on the visual Risk:Reward alignment.
- Quickly spot whether the TP is worth the risk of the SL before entering a trade.
- Customize the color, style, and width of lines and boxes to suit your charting preferences.
This tool is especially useful for traders following strict risk management plans or those teaching new traders to understand reward-to-risk concepts visually.
