Money Management by Vince. Implementation as a module for MQL5 Wizard

While working in financial markets, we are constantly looking for a system that would help us earn profit. Of course, we want this system to be stable and to maintain minimum risk. For the purpose of finding such a strategy, different trading systems searching for optimal entries and exits are being developed. Such systems include technical indicators and trading signals advising when to buy and to sell. There is a whole system of price patterns for technical analysis. At the same time, Ralph Vince shows in his book"Mathematics of Money Management" that the amount of the capital used for performing trades is no less important. To optimize profit and to save a deposit, it is necessary to determine the lot size to trade.

Account Watch - Control entries - indicator for MetaTrader 5

If you can't watch your statistics and your game plan at all time, your emotions will take control and you will start taking ENTRIES such as revenge trade especially when you lose it. So that is why I wanted to keep an eye on my stats and my game plan at all time, in order to control my emotions. 

I came up with this indicator that will allows me to keep an eye on my statistics and my daily target.

Money Management

It was many talking about MM in EAs today.

So I found Money Management indicator and translated some comments on the chart from Russian to English.

Just unput desirable risk, price to open the order (for example) and price for stop loss. And read comments on the chart.

It is indicator (not script).

This is a life saver! Thanks @Sergey

Moral expectation in trading

Mathematical expectation in trading is one of the indicators used to evaluate a trading strategy efficiency. In 1738, Daniel Bernoulli published his work "Specimen theoriae novae de mensura sortis" (Exposition of a New Theory on the Measurement of Risk). In this work, he derived the moral expectation equation. The main difference between moral expectation and mathematical expectation is that moral expectation depends on the player's capital and implicitly takes into account the risk of the game.
