Check out the new article: MQL5 Trading Tools (Part 7): Informational Dashboard for Multi-Symbol Position and Account Monitoring.
In this article, we develop an informational dashboard in MQL5 for monitoring multi-symbol positions and account metrics like balance, equity, and free margin. We implement a sortable grid with real-time updates, CSV export, and a glowing header effect to enhance usability and visual appeal.
We’re developing an informational dashboard to provide a centralized view of our positions across multiple symbols and essential account metrics, making it easier to track performance without needing to switch screens. This architecture is key because it organizes scattered trading data into a sortable grid, with real-time totals and export options, helping to spot issues like excessive drawdown or unbalanced positions quickly.
We will achieve this by gathering position details like buys, sells, lots, and profit for each symbol, while displaying account balance, equity, and free margin, all with interactive sorting and a subtle visual effect for engagement. We plan to loop through symbols to collect and sum data, ensuring the dashboard is lightweight and responsive for live trading environments.
