Lot Size Calculator and Risk-Controlled Trade Panel for MT5 - Position Sizing with Daily Loss Limits for Prop Firm Accounts
Guardian Trade Manager is a professional trade execution and risk-control panel with a built-in lot size calculator: set your risk percent and it derives the exact lot size from equity, stop distance and tick value on every manual trade — with daily loss limits enforced. For prop firm and funded accounts.
It is designed for traders who want to open manual trades quickly while keeping position sizing, stop loss, take profit and daily loss limits under control.
The utility does not generate trading signals and does not trade automatically. You remain responsible for every BUY or SELL decision.
Main Features
Automatic Lot Calculation
Enter your preferred risk percentage and stop-loss distance. Guardian Trade Manager automatically calculates the appropriate trading volume based on the current account balance and symbol specifications.
Protected BUY and SELL Execution
Open market orders directly from the chart panel. Stop Loss and Take Profit are attached during execution according to your selected settings.
Flexible Take-Profit Modes
Take Profit can be calculated using:
- Risk-to-reward ratio
- Fixed distance in points
Draggable SL and TP Preview Lines
Preview Stop Loss and Take Profit levels directly on the chart before placing a trade. The lines can be adjusted visually.
Account-Wide Daily Loss Protection
Guardian Trade Manager monitors the configured daily loss budget across the account.
When a new panel trade would exceed the remaining daily loss allowance, the order is refused before execution.
The daily limit can be configured as:
- Percentage of the day-start account baseline
- Fixed monetary amount
Maximum Trades per Day
Set a maximum number of panel trades that may be opened during the trading day.
Break-Even Automation
Optional break-even management can move the Stop Loss after the position reaches a specified profit distance.
You can configure:
- Profit distance required before activation
- Additional buffer above or below the entry price
Partial Position Closing
Close a predefined percentage of the current position directly from the panel.
Clear Trading Status
The panel displays essential information, including:
- Calculated lot size
- Monetary risk
- Remaining daily loss budget
- Daily budget usage
- Number of panel trades opened today
- Break-even status
- Current execution status
- Active position information
Blocked-Order Notifications
When an order is rejected by the protection system, Guardian Trade Manager can display a clear popup notification explaining the reason.
CSV Event Journal
Panel activity can be written to a CSV journal for later review and documentation.
