Trade Assistant Standard

My products

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard is a trading panel for MetaTrader 4, created for manual traders who need fast risk calculation, lot size calculation, visual trade planning and basic order execution directly from the chart.

It is an intermediate version between the free risk calculator Risk Calculator Panel MT4 and the full version Trade Assistant MT4 PRO.

The Standard version is suitable for traders who need the main tools for preparing and opening trades, but do not require advanced automatic position management.

The panel helps calculate position size in advance based on risk, build Entry / Stop Loss / Take Profit levels, check the risk/reward ratio, open a trade and perform basic position management.

Main Features

Risk Calculation

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard allows you to calculate risk before opening a trade.

Available risk calculation modes:

fixed amount in the deposit currency;

percentage of Balance;

percentage of Equity;

percentage of Free Margin;

percentage of Custom base amount.

This helps the trader understand the potential loss in advance and follow money management rules.

Lot Size Calculation

The panel calculates position volume based on:

selected risk;

entry price;

distance to Stop Loss;

trading instrument specification;

tick size;

tick value;

minimum and maximum volume;

lot step;

commission, if specified in the settings.

The calculated lot is displayed in the panel together with the expected risk, potential profit and risk/reward ratio.

Entry / Stop Loss / Take Profit Lines

The panel displays key trade levels on the chart:

Entry;

Stop Loss;

Take Profit.

The lines help visually prepare the trading scenario before opening a position.

You can change values in the panel or move the lines directly on the chart.

Risk / Reward Mode

RR mode allows Take Profit to be calculated automatically relative to Stop Loss.

Example:

R/TP = 3;

R/SL = 1.

This means that Take Profit will be calculated three times farther than Stop Loss.

This function is useful for traders who use a fixed risk/reward ratio.

Visual Trade Map

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard can display the visual structure of a trade on the chart:

risk zone;

potential profit zone;

Entry;

Stop Loss;

Take Profit;

calculated lot;

risk;

potential profit;

risk/reward ratio.

This allows you to evaluate the trade faster before entering the market.

Trade Execution

Unlike the free Risk Calculator Panel MT4, the Standard version supports basic order execution.

The panel can be used for:

Market Buy;

Market Sell;

Buy Stop;

Sell Stop;

Buy Limit;

Sell Limit.

Before sending an order, the panel calculates the position volume and checks the basic trade parameters.

Basic Position Management

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard includes several functions for managing an open position.

Breakeven

The Breakeven button moves the Stop Loss of an open position to the entry level.

This helps lock the trade in the breakeven zone after the trader decides to reduce the initial risk.

Partial Close

The Close % button closes part of the position according to the specified percentage.

This function can be used for:

partial profit taking;

reducing position volume;

gradual exit from the trade.

Close

The Close button closes open positions for the current symbol and Magic Number.

Important Notes

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard is not a signal system and does not forecast market direction.

The panel does not make trading decisions for the user.

It helps calculate trade parameters, prepare levels and perform basic trading actions.

The final decision about entry, exit and position management is always made by the trader.

Before using the panel on a real account, it is recommended to test it on a demo account and check the broker’s trading conditions: spread, commission, minimum lot, lot step, leverage and Stop Level restrictions.

Conclusion

Trade Assistant MT4 Standard is a practical trading panel for MetaTrader 4 that combines risk calculation, lot size calculation, Entry / SL / TP lines, visual trade map, Market / Stop / Limit execution, Breakeven, Partial Close and basic position closing.

It is a convenient intermediate option for traders for whom the free calculator is no longer enough, but who do not yet need the full set of PRO functions.
