Effortlessly calculate lot sizes and manage trades to save time and avoid costly errors
This Expert Advisor constantly monitors the equity of your trading account to prevent costly drawdowns and/or to comply with trading rules. When a certain set of rules are breached, the EA will alert, close all trades and in some cases, delete all pending orders. Optionally, it can also close all charts to remove all EAs operating in the account. This EA is particularly useful for Prop Trading Challenges, such as the FTMO Challenge or PZ Challenge.

How to use it for Prop Trading Challenges
This EA is useful for Prop Trading Firms or Traders as it encapsulates all the rules of the FTMO Challenge or the PZ Challenge. Any Prop Trading Firm can use this EA to monitor breaches of the trading rules, whereas a trader can use it to avoid breaking the rules of the firm or other fixed criteria he deems adequate. If you are a trader, make sure to enter restrictive values that stop your trading before the actual rules are broken, for instance, if the Max Daily Equity Loss possible is 2%, make sure to stop your trading when it reaches 1%.

The price of this robot might increase next week!
We've introduced dynamic pricing for this indicator to reflect its true market value. With each sale, the price increases by $1, rewarding early buyers. If no sales occur within a week, the price resets to the original rate, with prices updated every Monday. This model lets the market decide the product's value, but there’s always a chance to grab your desired tools at a cheaper price if you prefer to wait.
