AG Pro Position Planner [AGPro Series]AG Pro Position Planner
OVERVIEW
AG Pro Position Planner is a structured trade-planning and risk-organization tool designed for traders who want to map a position before execution. It focuses on four core elements of trade preparation: entry location, stop placement, target mapping, and position sizing. Instead of trying to predict direction or generate automated entries, the script helps organize a plan around levels that the user defines manually.
The purpose of this tool is not to tell the user what to buy or sell. Its purpose is to turn a discretionary plan into a visible, measurable framework on the chart. By combining entry, stop, risk budget, capital usage, and target structure in one view, the script helps reduce planning ambiguity and makes the trade idea easier to review before any order is placed.
The script supports both long and short planning. It can also operate in two different target modes. In R-Based mode, targets are derived from the distance between entry and stop. In Manual mode, the user can input exact target prices directly and the script will convert those targets into their implied R-multiples. This allows the same tool to support both systematic planning and discretionary scenario mapping without changing the underlying workflow.
The visual design is intentionally restrained. The chart shows entry, stop, and target levels, along with optional reward and risk zones. A compact panel summarizes the key planning information, including direction, mode, risk per unit, risk budget, sizing, exposure, and target statistics. The result is a planning layout that remains readable on both light and dark themes while keeping the focus on structure rather than decoration.
WHAT THIS SCRIPT DOES
This script helps the user:
• define a planned entry price
• define a planned stop price
• convert account risk into a position size estimate
• map one to three targets on the chart
• compare manual targets to the initial risk distance
• review exposure before execution
• validate whether a manual target structure is logically ordered
• visualize the reward zone above entry and the risk zone below entry for long scenarios, or the inverse logic for short scenarios
The script is designed as a planning layer. It does not attempt to replace the user’s analysis process. It assumes the user already has a trade idea and needs a cleaner way to structure and review that idea.
UNIQUE EDGE
The distinguishing feature of this script is not signal generation. Its edge is organizational clarity.
Many tools focus on entries, signals, or directional interpretation. This one focuses on plan construction. The user chooses the key prices, and the script translates them into a coherent risk model. That distinction matters. The script does not present itself as a forecasting engine, a market-timing system, or an automated decision model. It is a position-planning framework.
A second differentiator is the dual target workflow. Some users think in fixed R-multiples. Others think in exact price objectives. AG Pro Position Planner supports both approaches in the same interface. In Manual mode, the script still reports the effective R-value of each target, which helps the user compare discretionary targets against the initial stop distance without losing consistency.
A third differentiator is the built-in validation behavior. The script checks whether the trade structure is logically valid for the chosen direction. In Manual mode, it also checks whether the targets are placed in the correct direction and in the correct order. This helps the user detect plan errors before execution rather than after the fact.
METHODOLOGY
The planning model is straightforward by design.
1) Entry and stop define the base risk distance.
The script measures the absolute distance between entry and stop. That distance becomes the reference risk per unit.
2) Account risk defines the risk budget.
The user enters an account size and a percentage risk per trade. The script converts this into a monetary risk budget.
3) Position size is estimated from the risk budget.
The script divides the risk budget by effective risk per unit and rounds the resulting quantity down to the selected quantity step.
4) Optional fee adjustment can be included.
An estimated fee percentage can be added to the per-unit risk as a conservative sizing buffer.
5) Targets are then mapped in one of two ways.
In R-Based mode, each target is calculated from the entry-to-stop distance using the selected R-multipliers.
In Manual mode, the user provides exact target prices and the script calculates the implied R-value of each target relative to the original stop distance.
6) Exposure statistics are summarized in the panel.
The panel shows stop distance, capital usage, risk budget, and sizing information so the trade can be evaluated as a complete plan rather than as isolated levels.
This methodology is intentionally transparent. The script is not using hidden directional filters, prediction logic, or undisclosed entry models. The calculations are derived from the user’s own inputs.
TARGET MODES
R-Based Mode
R-Based mode is intended for users who want a consistent structure around initial risk. The user defines entry and stop, then sets target multipliers such as 1R, 2R, or 3R. The script projects those levels automatically from the base risk distance. This is useful when the user wants standardized scenario planning and fast comparison between multiple setups.
Manual Mode
Manual mode is intended for users who work with exact price objectives. In this mode, the user enters target prices directly. The script then converts those levels into implied R-values. This allows discretionary targets to be measured against the same initial risk model.
To reduce planning mistakes, the script validates whether manual targets are placed in the correct direction and in the correct order for the chosen trade direction. Invalid target structures are flagged in the panel instead of being silently accepted.
PANEL AND VISUAL STRUCTURE
The chart can display:
• entry line
• stop line
• target lines
• reward zone
• risk zone
• right-side labels for entry, stop, and targets
• a compact summary panel
The panel is designed to keep the most useful information visible without taking over the chart. Its goal is to support review, not to dominate the screen.
The compact panel includes:
• plan summary
• validation badge
• entry and stop
• risk per unit
• risk budget
• sizing
• exposure
• target statistics
This structure is meant to help the user answer practical questions quickly:
How much is being risked?
How large is the position?
How much capital is being used?
How far is the stop?
What does each target represent in both price and R terms?
KEY INPUTS
Trade Setup
• Trade Direction
• Target Mode
• Entry Price
• Stop Price
• R-based targets
• Manual targets
Risk Model
• Account Size

These inputs are separated by function so the planning workflow stays readable and predictable.
VALIDATION AND SAFETY LOGIC
The script validates several conditions before presenting a plan as valid.
For direction:
• Long plans require stop below entry
• Short plans require stop above entry
For base structure:
• Entry must be positive
• Stop must be positive
• Account size must be positive
• Risk percentage must be positive
• Quantity step must be positive
• Entry and stop must not be identical
For manual targets:
• Targets must be in the correct direction relative to entry
• Targets must be logically ordered for the selected direction
If the structure is invalid, the panel reflects that status instead of presenting the setup as a clean plan. This behavior is intentional. The script is designed to help organize decisions, but also to prevent simple construction errors from being overlooked.
WHO THIS SCRIPT IS FOR
This script is intended for users who already make their own directional decisions and want a cleaner way to structure position plans on the chart.
It may be useful for:
• discretionary traders
• swing traders
• intraday traders
• users who plan entries and stops manually
• users who prefer fixed-R target mapping
• users who want manual targets translated into risk terms
• users who want better visual discipline before execution
It is less relevant for users who are looking for:
• automated entries
• hidden directional logic
• predictive signals
• scanner behavior
• portfolio automation
• strategy backtests
SIGNALS AND ALERTS
This script does not generate buy signals or sell signals.
This script does not publish automated trade calls.
This script does not attempt to identify market direction.
This script does not include alert logic for execution decisions.
Its purpose is planning, visualization, and risk organization.
LIMITATIONS AND TRANSPARENCY
This script is a planning tool, not an execution engine.
It does not know whether the selected entry will be filled.
It does not know whether slippage will occur.
It does not know whether the market will reach the defined targets.
It does not account for instrument-specific margin rules, liquidation mechanics, funding costs, or exchange-specific order behavior unless the user adjusts inputs manually.
The sizing output is an estimate based on the values entered into the script. Real-world execution may differ due to slippage, fees, order type, spread, partial fills, and instrument-specific trading conditions.
In Manual mode, the script evaluates the price structure entered by the user, but it does not claim that those targets are likely to be reached. It only expresses them relative to the initial risk distance.
The chart zones are visual planning aids. They are not probability forecasts and should not be interpreted as predictive boundaries.
WHAT THIS SCRIPT IS NOT
This script is not:
• a strategy tester
• a signal service
• an automated trade system
• a forecasting model
• a promise of profitability
• a replacement for independent analysis
• a substitute for execution judgment
• a guarantee of risk control in live market conditions
It is a structured chart tool for planning and reviewing position scenarios.
RISK DISCLOSURE
Trading and investing involve risk. Any planned setup can fail, and losses can exceed expectations due to slippage, volatility, or execution conditions. This script is provided as an organizational and visualization tool only. Users remain fully responsible for their own analysis, trade selection, order placement, and risk management decisions.
No indicator can remove market risk. A visually clean plan is still only a plan. Position sizing, stop placement, and target mapping should always be reviewed in the context of the instrument, timeframe, liquidity conditions, and the user’s own trading process.
FINAL NOTE
AG Pro Position Planner is built around a simple idea: a trade plan should be measurable before it is actionable. By turning entry, stop, risk budget, sizing, and targets into a single visible structure, the script aims to make discretionary planning more disciplined, more transparent, and easier to review.
The script does not attempt to decide for the user. It helps the user define the plan clearly enough to evaluate it.
