This is an exploration to show entries, stops, pt's and 
positionssizes for all items in your Amibroker database. you could 
use it in combination with your own trading-systems.

The purpose to create this exploration for me was, to follow the 
daily changes in theoretical positionssize once in a trade, 
initilaized by the system explained in my previous post.

Although I can trail stops and profittargets on the chart, I could 
also use this daily exploration to adjust positionsizes in existing 
trade according to changes in volatility ( as long, as my stop is not 
hit )

Example :
I got a STO buy signal the day before on ABCD. I was able to buy my 
initial, risk/ volatility-adjusted, position at the expected price 
today.
Now let's "beam" ourselves a few days ahead into the future. ABCD 
went up as expected, but with declining intraday volatility. I was 
not only able to trail my stop ( higher ) but also to add some more 
shares, since the lower volatility and the higher price allowed my to 
increase my position without violating my 2% Risk rule.

The opposite scenario could be, that ABCD did not what it was 
supposed to do, but stayed flat or went a bit lower on decreased 
volatility, but without hitting the stop ( this time, the stop was 
not adjusted - never adjust a stop downwards ). Although ABCD went 
lower, volatility has decreased, allowing me to add some more shares 
at a lower price without violating my risk-rules.

Another scenario could be, that ABCD went lower on increased 
volatility, but still not hitting my initial stop - anyway this is a 
signal, that the trade my turn sour. I could do 2 things - get out 
immitiadely or decreasy my position a bit, in order to stay coherent 
with my risk rules.

Finally, ABCD could have went higher with increased volatility, also 
not really a good sign, because the uptrend could be about to crash 
soon. Again, a sign to think about the trade and decrease my position 
accordingly.

Here the exploration : One could also plot it as an indicator on a 
chart if he likes.
