Trade Cockpit Pilot — Signal Scanner + Position Sizing + Trade Management in a Tabbed Panel
Trade Cockpit Pilot is a Utility-category Expert Advisor with a minimal, purpose-driven design. It brings together a multi-timeframe signal confluence scanner, a precise position size calculator, one-click trade execution, and post-trade management — all organized in a clean, tabbed panel on your chart. No clutter. Only what matters.
Three tabs. One panel. Everything you need: what to trade (signal direction and strength), how much to trade (risk-based lot sizing), execute with one click, and manage your open positions (trailing stop, break-even, close any position).
What It Does
- Signal Confluence Scanner — Scans 5 technical indicators (RSI, EMA Crossover, MACD, Stochastic, Bollinger Bands) across 7 timeframes (M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1) and produces a composite score from -35 to +35. The full 5x7 signal matrix is displayed directly in the panel with each cell color-coded: green for bullish, red for bearish, grey for neutral.
- Position Size Calculator — Enter your risk in USD (or use a percentage of your balance), set your stop-loss distance in points, and the panel calculates the exact lot size using the OrderCalcProfit engine. Works correctly on Forex, Metals, Stocks, Crypto, Indices, and Futures — any instrument MetaTrader 5 supports.
- One-Click Execution — Click BUY or SELL to execute immediately. The panel handles stop-loss placement, take-profit (optional), minimum stop distance enforcement, filling mode detection, and automatic order splitting when your lot size exceeds the broker's maximum volume per order.
- Trailing Stop — Enable the trailing stop and set your start distance and step size. Once a position reaches your profit target, the stop-loss follows price automatically, locking in gains as the trade moves in your favor.
- Break-Even — Enable break-even and set a trigger distance and offset. When your position reaches the trigger profit, the stop-loss moves to your entry price plus the offset — removing risk from the trade.
- Position Navigator — Browse through all your open positions on the current symbol using navigation arrows. See each position's direction, lot size, and profit. Close any specific position or close all positions at once.
Important: This Is a Manual Trading Utility
Trade Cockpit Pilot is a manual trading tool, not an automated trading robot. It provides you with signal information, precise position sizing, and post-trade management, but you decide when to trade by clicking the BUY or SELL button. It is categorized as a Utility because it does not open trades automatically.
Strategy Tester note: Since this is a panel-based utility, the interactive panel (buttons, spin edits, drag) works in live charts only. In the Strategy Tester's Visual Mode, the panel displays but buttons and inputs are not interactive — this is a known MetaTrader 5 platform limitation for CAppDialog-based panels. The product is designed for live chart use.
Three Tabs
- SIGNAL Tab — The full signal confluence view. Shows the composite score, direction (BULLISH / BEARISH / NEUTRAL), signal strength percentage, last signal details, and the complete 5x7 indicator matrix. Each indicator on each timeframe is color-coded individually so you can see exactly where agreement and disagreement lies across timeframes.
- TRADE Tab — Position sizing and execution. Three adjustable fields (Risk, Stop-Loss, Take-Profit) with spin controls. Below them: calculated lot size, actual dollar risk, risk as a percentage of balance, current balance, order count, and symbol information (minimum stop distance, cost per point). BUY and SELL buttons at the bottom with a status bar showing trade results.
- MANAGE Tab — Post-trade management. Enable or disable trailing stop and break-even with checkboxes. Configure trailing start distance, step size, break-even trigger, and offset — all adjustable from the panel. The position navigator shows your open positions with arrows to browse through them, plus CLOSE and CLOSE ALL buttons. A live status line shows whether trailing or break-even is active and how many positions are being managed.
Theme System
Choose between three visual themes: System (automatically matches your MetaTrader chart background), Light, or Dark. The entire panel — including the title bar, borders, backgrounds, text, buttons, and all controls — updates to a coordinated color palette. Every element remains readable regardless of which theme you choose.
Safety Features
- BLOCKED status — If your stop-loss is below the broker's minimum distance, the status bar turns red and shows "BLOCKED". You cannot accidentally place a trade with an invalid stop-loss.
- BLOCKED — Risk > Balance — If your risk amount exceeds your account balance, execution is blocked.
- WARNING — If your risk exceeds 10% of your balance, the status bar turns orange with a clear warning. You can still execute if you choose to.
- Over-Risk indicator — When even the minimum lot size risks more than your target, the panel highlights this so you know you are risking more than intended.
- Order splitting — If your calculated lot size exceeds the broker's SYMBOL_VOLUME_MAX, the panel automatically splits it into multiple orders. You see the split count before executing.
- Manual lot override — Enable the manual lot checkbox to type your own lot size directly, bypassing the calculator when you want full control.
Signal Engine Details
The confluence scanner evaluates 5 indicators on 7 timeframes (35 individual scores). Each cell scores +1 (bullish), -1 (bearish), or 0 (neutral):
- RSI — Below oversold level = bullish (+1), above overbought = bearish (-1)
- EMA Crossover — Fast EMA above slow = bullish, below = bearish
- MACD — MACD line above signal line = bullish, below = bearish
- Stochastic — Below oversold = bullish, above overbought = bearish
- Bollinger Bands — Price below lower band = bullish, above upper band = bearish
Signals are generated on the confirmed (closed) M1 bar to avoid repainting. When the total score crosses your bullish or bearish threshold, a signal arrow can be drawn on the chart and alerts can be sent (desktop popup, push notification, and/or sound — all configurable).
Trade Management Details
- Trailing Stop — When a position's profit (in points) reaches the trailing start distance, the stop-loss begins following price at the configured step interval. The stop only moves in your favor — it never moves backward. Both the start distance and step are adjustable from the panel.
- Break-Even — When a position's profit reaches the trigger distance, the stop-loss moves to the entry price plus an optional offset (to cover spread/commission). Each position is moved to break-even only once. Break-even runs before trailing, so the trailing stop can take over after break-even is set.
- Position Navigator — Shows position details in the format: "1/3 BUY 0.50 +$12.50". Use the arrow buttons to browse through all open positions. CLOSE removes the selected position. CLOSE ALL removes every position on the current symbol with your magic number.
How to Use
- Attach to any chart — Drag Trade Cockpit Pilot onto any symbol's chart (any timeframe). The panel appears in the top-left corner. You can drag it anywhere on the chart.
- Choose your theme — Select System, Light, or Dark in the Display Settings input to match your chart style.
- Read the signals (SIGNAL tab) — The signal matrix shows you the current market state across all 7 timeframes and 5 indicators. Green cells agree with a bullish bias, red with bearish.
- Size your position (TRADE tab) — Set your Risk ($) amount, Stop-Loss distance, and optional Take-Profit. The panel calculates the exact lot size and shows your actual risk.
- Execute — When ready, click BUY or SELL. The status bar confirms your fill with the lot size and dollar risk.
- Manage (MANAGE tab) — Enable trailing stop or break-even. Browse your positions with the navigator. Close individual positions or all at once.
