Hi Yassine, 

You can calculate the volume you need to trade in order to risk a certain percentage of your balance using the following formula.

(Percentage * Account.Balance) / (Stop Loss Value)

In a cBot you would use the following code line

var volume = Symbol.VolumeInUnitsToQuantity(Symbol.NormalizeVolumeInUnits(((RiskPercentage / 100) * Account.Balance) / (StopLossInPips * Symbol.PipValue)));

I hope this helps.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
