I was wondering if there is a way to look at the account and show like an indicator how big i can trade.
For example, my rules say if i got more than 50000$ on my account i can trade up to 4 contracts. Between 30.000 and 50.000 $ 2 Contracs and below 30.000 just $ 1 contract.
It would be cool to have this shown in my Chart.
Is this posible to code?
Cheers

You are a very very confident trader, if you don't know if you have 1000, 10000, 100000 or 1M in your account.
Good for you.
