this is a question that is asked many times. dont be lazy. use the search feature of the website.

all you are asking for is to get sellers to repeat answers that you could find out in a 2 second search, and the sellers will get click bait for your effort opening this thread.

Exactly. My full calculation for algorithmic trading is stoploss points converted to account currency units, converted to a percentage of account balance (an input that auto-adjusts afterward), and ultimately set based on a lengthy backtest report─containing consecutive losses, relative drawdown, maximum drawdown, and profitable times. I also implement a time filter that goes on and off 4 times per day, ignores 1 day, and a presently unused monthly filter.😉

I'm not so sure that we're traders. I feel like a data forecaster, or a weapons manufacturer.😂


Generally speaking, Michael Charles Schefe is correct. However, I'm not an mql5.com Market Seller so the above logic is for sale nowhere.

 
Such recommendations are not allowed in this forum, you should make your own search in the Market and Codebase or post your requirements as a job in the Freelance section.

Risk management is mostly about position sizing, predefined stop loss, max daily loss, and keeping the same risk per trade.

For me, the most useful tools are a good position size calculator, clear SL/TP planning directly on the chart, and some type of equity protection or daily loss limit.

A good tool can make a big difference because it helps reduce manual calculation mistakes and keeps the risk process consistent, especially when trading fast or managing several positions at the same time.

Specific tool recommendations are not allowed in this forum, so it is better to search the Market and CodeBase yourself. I am sure you will quickly find something that fits your needs there. You can also post your requirements as a job in the Freelance section.

Utility EAs that can close all orders and stop trading once a specific criteria is met. It helps to safeguard your capital and prevent your account from blowing.
