NQ Position Size CalculatorNQ Position Size Line Calculator is designed specifically for Nasdaq 100 futures (NQ) and micro futures (MNQ) traders who want to maintain disciplined risk management. This visual tool eliminates the guesswork from position sizing by displaying distance lines and contract calculations directly on your chart.
The indicator creates horizontal lines at 10-tick intervals from your stop loss level, showing you exactly how many contracts to trade at each distance to maintain your predetermined risk amount. Whether you're trading regular NQ contracts or micro MNQ contracts, this calculator ensures you never risk more than intended while providing instant visual feedback for optimal position sizing decisions.
How to Use the Indicator
Step 1: Configure Your Settings
Stop Loss Price: Enter your exact stop loss level (e.g., 20000.00)
Risk Amount ($): Set your maximum dollar risk per trade (e.g., $500)
Contract Type: Choose between:
NQ (Regular): $5 per tick - for larger accounts
MNQ (Micro): $0.50 per tick - for smaller accounts or conservative sizing
Display Options:
Max Lines: Number of distance lines to show (default: 30)
Show Labels: Toggle tick distance and contract count labels
Line Color: Customize the color of distance lines
Label Size: Choose tiny, small, or normal label sizes
Step 2: Read the Visual Display
Once configured, the indicator displays:
Stop Loss Line:
Thick yellow line marking your exact stop loss level
Yellow label showing the stop loss price
Distance Lines:
Dashed red lines at 10-tick intervals above and below your stop loss
Lines appear on both sides for long and short position planning
Labels (if enabled):
Green labels (right side): For long positions above your stop loss
Red labels (left side): For short positions below your stop loss
Format: "20T 5x" means 20 ticks distance, 5 contracts maximum
Step 3: Use the Information Tables
The indicator provides two helpful tables:
Position Size Table (top-right):
Shows common tick distances (10, 20, 40, 80, 160 ticks)
Displays risk per contract at each distance
Contract count for your specified risk amount
Total risk with rounded contract numbers
Settings Table (bottom-right):
Confirms your current risk amount
Shows selected contract type
Displays current settings for quick reference
Step 4: Apply to Your Trading
For Long Positions:
Look at the green labels on the right side of your chart
Find your desired entry level
Read the label to see: distance in ticks and maximum contracts
Example: "30T 8x" = 30 ticks from stop, buy 8 contracts maximum
For Short Positions:
Look at the red labels on the left side of your chart
Find your desired entry level
Read the label for tick distance and contract count
Example: "40T 6x" = 40 ticks from stop, sell 6 contracts maximum
Step 5: Trading Execution
Before Entering a Trade:
Identify your stop loss level and input it into the indicator
Choose your entry point by looking at the distance lines
Note the contract count from the corresponding label
Verify the risk amount matches your trading plan
Execute your trade with the calculated position size
Risk Management Features:
Contract rounding: All position sizes are rounded down (never up) to ensure you don't exceed your risk limit
Zero position filtering: Lines only show where position size is at least 1 contract
Dual-sided display: Plan both long and short opportunities simultaneously
Aggregated Open Interest [Alpha Extract]The Aggregated Open Interest indicator provides a comprehensive view of open interest across multiple cryptocurrency exchanges, allowing traders to monitor institutional positioning and market sentiment. By aggregating data from major exchanges like Binance, BitMEX, and Kraken, this indicator offers valuable insights into potential price movements and market shifts.
🔶 CALCULATION
The indicator processes open interest data through multiple analytical methods:
Exchange Aggregation: Collects and normalizes open interest data from multiple exchanges (Binance, BitMEX, Kraken) with proper currency normalization.
Multi-Mode Analysis: Calculates various metrics including raw open interest values, OI change, OI delta, volume-weighted delta, and OI RSI.
Divergence Detection: Uses pivot point analysis to identify divergences between price action and open interest movements.
Activity Assessment: Tracks bullish and bearish activity patterns by correlating open interest changes with price movements.
Formula:
Aggregate OI = Sum of normalized open interest from selected exchanges
OI Change = Current OI - Previous OI
OI Delta = Net change in open interest across timeframes
OI Delta × Volume = OI Delta weighted by relative volume
OI RSI = Relative Strength Index applied to open interest values
OI Heatmap = Multi-timeframe visualization of OI changes across 7 distinct periods
🔶 DETAILS
Visual Features:
Open Interest: Candlestick representation of aggregated open interest
OI Change: Histogram showing period-to-period changes
OI Delta: Histogram displaying net OI movements
OI Delta × Volume: Volume-weighted OI delta for enhanced signals
OI RSI: Oscillator showing overbought/oversold OI conditions
OI Heatmap: Multi-timeframe visualization showing OI changes across 7 periods (3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and 55 days)
Divergence Detection: Color-coded markers (teal for bullish, red for bearish) highlighting significant divergences between price and open interest
Analysis Table: Real-time summary of key metrics including aggregate OI, recent changes, and bullish/bearish activity.
Interpretation:
Increasing Open Interest + Rising Price: Strong bullish trend confirmation
Increasing Open Interest + Falling Price: Strong bearish trend confirmation
Decreasing Open Interest + Rising Price: Weak bullish trend (potential reversal)
Decreasing Open Interest + Falling Price: Weak bearish trend (potential reversal)
Divergences: Signal potential trend exhaustion and reversals when price moves in one direction while open interest moves in the opposite direction
Heatmap: Provides at-a-glance insight into open interest trends across multiple timeframes, with green bars indicating rising OI and red bars indicating falling OI
🔶 EXAMPLES
Trend Confirmation: Rising open interest accompanying a price increase confirms strong bullish momentum with institutional backing.
Example: During January-February 2025, rising OI during price advances confirms institutional participation in the uptrend.
Bearish Divergence: Price makes a higher high while open interest makes a lower high, signaling potential trend reversal.
Example: Red markers appear at market tops where price continues higher but open interest fails to confirm, preceding significant corrections.
Bullish Divergence : Price makes a lower low while open interest makes a higher low, indicating potential bottoming.
Example: Teal markers appear at market bottoms where price continues lower but open interest fails to confirm, preceding significant rallies.
OI Heatmap Analysis : Multiple timeframes showing consistent red signals across short to long-term periods indicate strong institutional selling pressure.
Example: When all 7 periods (3-55 days) show red during a price uptrend, this signals institutional selling into retail strength, often preceding major corrections.
🔶 SETTINGS
Customization Options:
Data Sources: Toggle different exchanges (Binance USDT/USD/BUSD, BitMEX USD/USDT, Kraken USD)
Display Mode: Choose between Open Interest, OI Change, OI Delta, OI Delta × Volume, OI RSI, and OI Heatmap
Currency Units: Display in USD or base cryptocurrency (COIN)
Analysis Tools: Moving Average (length and color), RSI (length and color)
Divergence Detection: Enable/disable signals, adjust lookback period and threshold percentage, customize bullish/bearish divergence colors
OI Heatmap Colors: Customize bullish (green) and bearish (red) signal colors for the multi-timeframe heatmap visualization
The Aggregated Open Interest indicator provides traders with comprehensive insights into institutional positioning across major exchanges, helping identify potential trend continuations, reversals, and key market turning points driven by smart money movements. The addition of the OI Heatmap feature enables traders to quickly visualize open interest trends across multiple timeframes, providing valuable context for institutional positioning over different market cycles.
Open Interest Divergence (OI vs Price)This indicator show having increasing Open Interest but price still move in a range (Open Interest Divergence vs price).
It is same with Divergence of indicators as RSI Divergence, Macd Divergence, .... It is easy to understand.
Additional, with MA line OI, you can see the change of OI.
Breakeven rectangle overlay for move contractI'm sharing this little script allowing you to display a breakeven rectangle for the move contract after manually writing your parameters (strike price, contract price). In case you are long your breakeven (at expiration) is when the price expire outside the rectangle. In case you are short your breakeven (again at expiration) is when the price is staying inside the rectangle at expiration. You can change multiple personalisation parameters as you wish.

Contango-Backwardation-Buschi
English:
This script shows the difference between a future's continuous current contract (e. g. CL1!) and the continuous next contract (e. g. CL2!). Normally, the next contract is more expensive ("Contango" - shown in green). If the next contract is cheaper, the difference is negative ("Backwardation" - shown in red).
A change between Contango and Backwardation often corresponds with stronger price changes.
Deutsch:
Dieses Skript zeigt den Unterschied zwischen dem kontinuierlichen aktuellem Kontrakt eines Futures (z. B. CL1!) und dem kontinuierlichen Folgekontrakt (z. B. CL2!). Im Normalfall ist der Folgekontrakt teurer ("Contango" - angezeigt in grün). Wenn der Folgekontrakt billiger ist, ist die Differenz negativ ("Backwardation" - angezeigt in rot).
Ein Wechsel zwischen Contango und Backwardation korrespondiert häufig mit größeren Preisänderungen.

A strategy can "appear" to work or be broken depending on the pile of cash that is working on. This amount is defined in the strat properties, under "order size".
For noobs (like me) this is very confusing at first :)
A strat opens/closes positions using units, a generic measure for the chart being operated on. Thes "units" can be a fixed amount of cash, a fixed amount of contracts, or a floating amount based on the last profits made. I recommend checking my previous strat to figure the case of contracts .
So, any trading price is the amount of "things" you get for some "cash". The things are the first unit, the "cash" is the second. Some examples:
XAU/USD - 1 xau oz is worth x dollars
BTC/USD - 1 bitcoin is worth x dollars
GBP/EUR - 1 pound is worth x euros
To add to confusion, a lot of markets the "unit size" is different from what the strat thinks it is. An options contract is 100 shares(the unit), 1 xau contract is 10 oz(units), 1 eur/usd contract is 100k euros and so on... so, after figuring out how the sizes work in a strat, then the sizes must be adapted for the specific market in question.
The choice os using the ETHUSD pair is because:
1 - you can buy 1eth, unlike a gold contract for example, so 1 "unit" = 1 eth, easier to get
2 - ETH is around 12 bucks, wich gives round numbers on the math, easier to wrap the brains around :)
3- is an unusual pair, so the regular contract sizes don't apply, and the brain is not conditioned to work inside the box ;)
You will have to access the script properties, to change the values. As these values are changed you will see exactly the differences in the values of the strat.
Text is too long, check the comments for all the cases
