# 📊 The Position Monitor — Real-Time Trade HUD for MT5

### 🧠 Overview

**The Position Monitor** is a lightweight, real-time position display script for MetaTrader 5. It provides a clean, customizable heads-up display (HUD) directly on your chart, showing **live trade data**—symbol, direction, volume, open price, SL/TP, and floating profit/loss—updated continuously without delay.

No terminals, no clutter, just **essential trade info in your face, always**.
