Daily Risk Monitor Lite is a free and open-source MetaTrader 5 indicator for traders who want to monitor intraday account risk clearly on the chart.
This indicator focuses on a small, explainable, and practical feature set:
- Daily Realized P/L
- Floating P/L
- Daily Total
- Current Drawdown %
- SAFE / WARNING / DANGER status with color highlighting
The goal of this project is simple: help traders see daily account risk in real time.
This is a read-only monitoring tool. It does not close positions, block trading, or act as a full protection engine. It is intentionally positioned as a lightweight CodeBase sample for monitoring, learning, and further custom development.
### Main Features
- Compact on-chart panel
- Account-level daily risk statistics
- Daily realized P/L from closed deals
- Floating P/L from open positions
- Daily total calculation
- Current drawdown percentage
- Color-based risk status
- Optional commission inclusion
- Optional swap inclusion
- Broker day or manual day-start logic
- Custom draggable on-chart panel during the active session
### Data Scope
- Account level only
- No symbol-level split
- No multi-account aggregation
### Calculation Rules
#### Daily Realized P/L
- Counts closed deals inside the active daily range
- Only exit deals are included
- Commission can be included or excluded
- Swap can be included or excluded
#### Floating P/L
- Uses the current floating result of all open positions in the account
- Swap can be included or excluded
#### Daily Total
- `Daily Realized P/L + Floating P/L`
#### Current Drawdown %
- `max((Balance - Equity) / Balance * 100, 0)`
- If `Balance <= 0`, drawdown is displayed as `N/A`
#### Risk Usage %
- Only calculated when `Daily Total < 0`
- Formula:
`abs(Daily Total) / Daily Loss Limit * 100`
- Warning threshold: `50%`
- Danger threshold: `80%`
### Day Definition
- If `InpUseBrokerDay = true`, the day starts at broker server `00:00`
- If `InpUseBrokerDay = false`, the day starts at `InpManualDayStartHour` on broker server time
### What This Indicator Does Not Do

- No one-click close

Easy Range Breakout EA - MT5
This EA implements a range breakout trading strategy. It calculates a price range between start and end times defined by the user, draws a visual rectangle on the chart to mark the high and low of that range, and then monitors price action after the range closes. If the market breaks above the range high, it opens a buy trade; if it breaks below the range low, it opens a sell trade.
Accelerator Oscillator (AC)
The Acceleration/Deceleration Indicator (AC) measures acceleration and deceleration of the current driving force.
