Guardian Prop Cockpit

Guardian Prop Cockpit – the prop firm guardian that knows your firm's rules before you do.

Passing a prop firm challenge is not only about finding good trades. It is about staying inside a set of rules that every firm measures differently: daily loss from balance or from equity, static or trailing drawdown, minimum trading days, consistency limits, news windows. One misunderstanding of one rule can cost the whole account.

Guardian Prop Cockpit is a monitoring cockpit for MetaTrader 5. It does not trade, it does not promise profit. It shows you – live on the chart – exactly how much room you have left under the rules of your prop firm, and how far you are from your target and from your payout.

Firm presets – the difference from every other guardian

Select your firm, account size and phase from a dropdown, and all limits are pre-configured: FTMO (2-Step), FundedNext (Stellar 2-Step), The5ers (High Stakes), FundingPips (2-Step Standard), E8 Markets (E8 One, 1-Step with trailing drawdown) – plus a fully configurable Custom mode. Each preset sets daily loss basis, max drawdown type (static or trailing, correctly implemented), profit target, minimum trading days and consistency rule. Preset values are guidance values with source date August 2026 – always verify the current rules of your firm.

The 4 cockpit blocks

• Phase tracker – progress to profit target in %, distance to daily loss and max drawdown in money, trading days counted vs. minimum, projection “~X days to target at current pace”, phase switch Challenge / Verification / Funded.
• Rule watch – green / yellow / red traffic lights per limit with configurable warning thresholds (default 50% / 80%), sound alert. Optional emergency brake EmergencyCloseAll (OFF by default): closes all positions once when a limit is breached – one action, no trading lockout.
• Status lights – display only: next high-impact news today from the MT5 economic calendar (“USD FOMC in 42m”), consistency status (“best day = X% of total profit”).
• Payout readiness – live checklist of every condition of the selected preset, with an overall verdict READY / OPEN.

Built to survive reality

• Day anchors, peaks, trading days, breach flags and phase selection survive terminal restarts (per-account global variables plus rebuild from deal history).
• Deposits and withdrawals shift the anchors correctly.
• Panel languages: EN / DE / FR / AR (right-to-left layout), DPI-scaled.
• Own CSV journal, double-instance warning, works next to any EA or manual trading on any symbol.

What it is not

Guardian Prop Cockpit does not open orders, does not use martingale, grid or averaging, and does not block trading. It is read-only by design – the only optional action is the emergency brake described above.
