Phantom Guardian

You don't fail prop firm challenges because of your strategy. You fail because of one bad day.

One revenge trade. One position left open over the weekend. One news spike that hits your daily loss limit before you even open your laptop. You had the edge. You had the plan. And then discipline failed — because discipline always fails under pressure.

PHANTOM Guardian fixes that. Not by making you a better trader. By making discipline automatic.

### What PHANTOM Guardian Does

PHANTOM Guardian is a MetaTrader 5 risk enforcement utility. It runs silently alongside your trading — manual or EA — and enforces every rule your prop firm requires. The moment a limit is breached, Guardian acts. No delay, no hesitation, no human error.

You set the rules once. Guardian enforces them every second the terminal is running.

### Who This Is For

- Prop firm traders on FTMO, MyForexFunds, E8 Funding, or any evaluation program
- Over-traders who know the rules but break them anyway when the market moves against them
- Account managers handling multiple client accounts who need automated risk guardrails
- Any MT5 trader who wants to stop blowing accounts on bad days

---

### How It Works

1. Set limits or pick a preset — FTMO, MFF, and E8 presets are built in. One click and your challenge rules are loaded.
2. Guardian monitors in real time — equity, floating P&L, open positions, lot sizes, trading hours.
3. Warning thresholds trigger alerts — you get a push notification and on-screen warning before a limit is hit.
4. Breach = automatic close — when a hard limit is reached, Guardian closes all positions immediately and locks new entries for the session.
5. Anti-tilt cooldown — after a configurable number of consecutive losses, Guardian pauses trading automatically. You cool down, the account survives.

### Good to Know

Guardian will close your trades when limits are hit. That is not a bug — that is the entire point. If you are not ready for automatic position closure, start with Easy Mode and conservative limits. Test on a demo account first to understand how Guardian behaves.

The Weekend Close feature uses server time. Verify your broker's server time before relying on it for prop firm compliance.

Anti-tilt cooldown blocks new trades, but does not close existing positions. Combine with the equity shield for full protection.
