Prop Firm Dashboard: The Ultimate Real-Time Rules Monitor

Stop refreshing your browser and start focusing on the charts.

The Prop Firm Dashboard EA is a professional-grade monitoring tool designed for serious traders. It brings your critical account metrics—Max Drawdown, Daily Loss, and Profit Targets—directly onto your MT5 chart in real-time. Whether you are trading FTMO, TopStep, FundedNext, or any other major firm, this dashboard ensures you never accidentally breach a rule again.

🛡️ Stay Safe. Trade Smarter.

Most traders fail prop challenges not because of bad strategy, but because they lose track of their drawdown. This EA eliminates the guesswork by providing a high-fidelity visual representation of your "trading room" or "buffer."

🚀 Key Features

• Dual Drawdown Logic: Choose between Static (FTMO style) or Trailing (TopStep style) Max Drawdown modes.

• Balance vs. Equity Toggle: Customize the calculation base to match your specific firm’s rules exactly.

• Intelligent Daily Loss Tracking: Real-time monitoring of your daily floor, including intraday peak-trailing for advanced rules.

• Profit Target Progress: A visual progress bar shows you exactly how close you are to your next phase or payout.

• Activity Monitor: Tracks unique trading days and warns you about inactivity rules to prevent account expiration.

• Sleek, Modern UI: A professional, dark-themed interface that fits perfectly on any chart without cluttering your workspace.

• Performance Optimized: Zero lag. This EA is built with lightweight logic to ensure it doesn't slow down your terminal or execution.

📊 Visual Metrics Included:

• Account Status: Live Balance, Equity, and Floating P/L.

• Drawdown Buffers: Dollar-value floors and percentage-based risk meters.

• Target Metrics: Remaining profit required and "Target Met" indicators.

3. Set your Calculation Mode (Balance or Equity) and DD Type (Static or Trailing).

4. Trade with total peace of mind.

Why Choose This Dashboard?

Most dashboards on the market are either too simple or overly bloated. This EA was built by a trader, for traders. It provides the exact data points you need to stay compliant with professional funding programs, allowing you to focus on the only thing that matters: Executing your edge.

📘 Technical Guide & User Manual

To ensure your account stays protected, please configure the following parameters according to your specific Prop Firm's rules (FTMO, TopStep, FundedNext, etc.).

1. Account Setup

• Starting Balance: Enter the exact initial balance of your challenge (e.g., 10000 , 50000 ). This is the anchor for all percentage calculations.

• Challenge Phase: A text label for your own reference (e.g., Phase 1, Phase 2, or Funded).

2. Profit Target

• Profit Target (%): The percentage gain required to pass the phase.

• Show Profit Target: Set to true to display the progress bar. If you are on a funded account with no target, set this to false .

3. Drawdown Rules (Critical)

• Drawdown Calculation Base: * BASE_BALANCE : Calculations are based on your closed account balance.

  • BASE_EQUITY : Calculations include floating profits/losses. Note: Use this for firms that calculate drawdown based on "Relative Equity."

• Max Drawdown Type:

  • STATIC_DD : The hard floor is calculated once based on your starting balance (e.g., FTMO).

  • TRAILING_DD : The hard floor "trails" your account peak. If your account equity hits a new high, your stop-out floor moves up accordingly (e.g., TopStep).

• Max Drawdown (%): Your total allowed loss from the starting point or peak.

• Daily Drawdown (%): Your allowed loss for a single trading day. The dashboard resets this automatically at 00:00 Server Time.

4. Activity & Inactivity Rules

• Min Trading Days: The minimum number of days you must place a trade to pass. The dashboard tracks unique calendar days with at least one executed deal.

• Max Inactive Days: The maximum number of consecutive days you can remain inactive before the account expires.

• Enable Inactive Days Warning: Set to true to see a countdown of your remaining inactive "buffer" days.

5. Customizing Appearance

• Dashboard X/Y: Adjust these coordinates to move the panel anywhere on your chart.

• Color Settings: Fully customizable. You can match the dashboard to your favorite chart template (Dark, Light, or Neon).

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the EA close my trades automatically? A: No. This version of the EA is a monitoring and reporting tool. It provides real-time data and visual warnings. It does not execute or close trades.

Q: Why is my "Remaining Buffer" different from the Prop Firm's website? A: Prop firm websites often update with a delay (every 1-15 minutes). This EA calculates your status on every tick, giving you a more accurate, real-time view of your current standing.

Q: Do I need to attach the EA to every chart? A: No. Attach the EA to only one chart. It monitors the entire account balance and history across all symbols you are trading.

Pro-Tip for Traders

Always check if your firm uses Equity-based or Balance-based daily drawdown. If you aren't sure, contact their support. Setting the DrawdownCalcMode correctly is the difference between a safe account and an accidental breach!
