Fomo Killswitch EA – Risk Management & Trading Discipline Tool for MT5
Stop revenge trading, overtrading and blown accounts. Fomo Killswitch EA is a
discipline assistant that automatically enforces your daily risk limits, blocks
impulsive entries and protects your account during prop firm challenges –
without relying on willpower.
## How it works
Fomo Killswitch runs alongside your existing trading setup and acts as a
safety gate for your account:
- One click locks new entries for a chosen period (FOMO Lock)
- After a significant loss, the EA automatically applies a cooldown
- Daily limits are enforced automatically: drawdown, profit target, trade
count, lot size and consecutive losses
- When the daily loss limit is breached, the EA can close positions, close
the chart or even shut down MetaTrader 5 (with alert and countdown)
- Trading sessions (Asian, European, American) with automatic exit at
session end
All counters and states are preserved across terminal restarts using global
variables, so the protection keeps working even after a restart.
