Buster Call

BUSTER CALL — the EA that does not trade. It BRAKES.

A whole-account guardian on one chart: a daily loss limit for prop-firm rules, an equity kill-switch, per-EA jails, a news lockdown, and a built-in trade copier with your own private relay. Every EA, every manual trade, one bouncer at the door.

It opens zero trades of its own. It sits on ONE chart and guards the WHOLE account — every EA, every manual trade, every pending order. No magic numbers to configure. You draw the lines; it enforces them while you sleep.

═══════ THE PROBLEM ═══════

Your EAs know their own trades — and nothing else. They cannot see the account's daily loss building across three strategies at once. Their news filters cover their own entries, not your manual position. And when one of them goes wrong at 3 AM, nothing on the chart has a brake pedal. Most blown accounts do not die from one bad strategy; they die from one bad day nothing was watching.

═══════ THE SOLUTION ═══════

One chart carries a guardian for everything: a daily loss limit in your prop firm's own frame, an account-wide kill-switch with a patrol that keeps the book flat, a separate loss budget and jail for every EA, a news lockdown for the whole account, a daily report to your phone — and a trade copier that runs on infrastructure you own. Each protection is independent: run all of them, or only the ones you need.

═══════ WHO IT IS FOR ═══════

• Prop-firm and funded-account traders living under a daily loss rule — the DAY GUARD was built for exactly that line.

• Traders running several EAs who want one bad bot jailed alone, not the whole account paying for it.

• Manual traders who want a hard stop on the account that does not depend on discipline at 2 AM.

• Anyone managing a second account — family, a friend, a challenge — who needs trades mirrored under the receiver's own risk ceilings.

═══════ DAY GUARD — BUILT FOR PROP FIRMS (new in 3.28) ═══════

The daily loss rule is the rule that ends most funded accounts. BUSTER CALL runs that rule on YOUR side of the fence: it anchors at broker midnight — the clock most firms write the rule on, measured the strict way (the higher of balance and equity) — and when the day turns ugly it HALTS THE DAY: everything closed, everything held closed — anything the market refuses to close is retried on patrol and named in the journal — then it re-arms itself at the next midnight. Set the dial 20–30% inside your firm's daily line (their 5% → your 3.5–4) and the worst day of your challenge is built to end as a halted day, not a breached account. Warning push on the way down, day-room counter on the panel, and the anchor survives restarts, reboots and power cuts.

═══════ THE GUARDIAN — THE ACCOUNT KILL-SWITCH ═══════

You set the maximum drawdown. Cross it and everything closes — and the WARDEN keeps re-closing anything that dares reopen, until you press RESET. Prefer scorched earth? NUKE mode closes the terminal itself once the book is flat. The peak anchor and the tripped state are persisted twice over (terminal globals plus a file mirror), so a restart, a crash, or a VPS left dark for months hands back a guardian that still remembers. Amber warning push to your phone before the line, so you act before the trip, not after.

═══════ LEGION — A SEPARATE LEASH FOR EVERY EA ═══════

Each EA gets its own loss budget. The grid bot blows its allowance? ONLY that bot is flattened and jailed — the rest of the account keeps trading. Five slots plus an advanced line for more, magic-number ranges and symbol matching, auto-naming from trade comments. Exclusion groups let EAs that must not trade together take turns holding the floor.

═══════ NEWS SHIELD ═══════

Flat or blocked before high-impact news, back after the window — account-wide, covering EAs that carry no news filter of their own and manual trades alike. Three layered calendar feeds with automatic failover, and every order it touches is named in the journal: ticket, symbol, lots, price. Nothing ever quietly disappears.

═══════ ARMADA — THE BUILT-IN TRADE COPIER ═══════

Same machine: fills reach the follower inside the copier's 50 ms pulse — measured as fast as a millisecond, typically a couple of dozen — no relay, no internet needed. Different cities, different countries: you deploy your OWN private relay — a tiny worker script included with the product files — on free-tier hosting in about ten minutes, once. Your trade signals never touch a third-party copy service: the relay is yours alone.

The follower holds every dial: lot mode (proportional / multiplier / fixed), max lot, max margin percent, max open copies, entry-drift gate — and news-lockdown respect, always on while the shield is armed. Sizing is verified BEFORE the first copy opens — contract size, contract VALUE (gold, indices and crypto are priced differently across brokers, and 3.28 checks it), different account currencies converted at your own broker's rate. If the link ever drops, the follower HOLDS by default (or, if you chose FLATTEN, closes its copies) — it never opens a trade blind — and your phone is told: signed off, copies held, revived.

═══════ ALWAYS WATCHING ═══════

• TELEMETRY: a daily status push to your phone — balance, equity, drawdown, day guard, per-EA net.

• BORIS: an attach-time inspection that flags every configuration trap out loud instead of letting it bite later.

• A dashboard that tells the truth: watching, warning, lockdown, halted — one glance, one answer.

═══════ SEE IT WORK BEFORE YOU BUY ═══════

Run the free demo in the Strategy Tester: it stages a scripted drawdown — opening two small demo positions ONLY in the tester, so the guardian has something to save — and you watch the warning fire, the trip fire, the book flatten, the patrol hold. The provocation is scripted; the guardian reacting to it is the real code. On a live chart, BUSTER CALL never opens a trade of its own.

═══════ WHAT YOU GET ═══════

• One EA, one chart per account — any MT5 broker, any symbol. (The copier's follower side needs a hedging-mode account, standard on nearly all retail MT5 brokers.)

• The complete Operator's Manual — free download here: https://www.mql5.com/en/blogs/post/774974 — master setup in 9 steps, follower in 6, a full prop-firm playbook, every input explained, every panel colour decoded. The same post carries the relay files for the remote copier.

• Honest documentation: the manual states plainly where every protection's edges are.

═══════ SETUP — THREE STEPS ═══════

1. Attach BUSTER CALL to any ONE chart on the account (any symbol, any timeframe — it guards the account, not the chart).

2. Set your two lines: the account trip percent and, on a prop account, the DAY GUARD daily percent. The defaults of everything else are the recommended settings.

3. Done. BORIS inspects your terminal configuration at attach and tells you out loud if anything would blunt the guard. The copier, the news shield and LEGION are there when you want them — each one is optional.

═══════ REQUIREMENTS ═══════

• MetaTrader 5, one chart per account. Any MT5 broker, any symbol, any timeframe.

• Algo Trading enabled — the guardian closes trades, so the terminal must allow it (BUSTER CALL warns you the minute it is switched off).

• The copier's FOLLOWER side needs a hedging-mode account (standard on nearly all retail MT5 brokers) — the guardian itself runs on any account type.

• Internet access is OPTIONAL: news backup feeds and the remote copier use the whitelist below; every guardian function runs with no internet at all.

• Runs on a normal VPS or home PC. The state survives restarts, crashes and power cuts by design.

═══════ HONEST BY DESIGN ═══════

The trip line is a trigger, not a guaranteed maximum loss — spikes, broker-side rejections and weekend gaps can overshoot any stop-based protection. BUSTER CALL will not make a losing strategy profitable; it exists to stop a bad day from becoming a dead account. No profit promises. The DAY GUARD models a midnight-anchored daily rule; a firm that trails the day's equity peak needs a larger buffer — the manual's prop playbook covers it. Check your prop firm's rules for third-party tools, and drill the demo before you trust it live — the manual shows you exactly how.

═══════ WEBREQUEST WHITELIST (Tools > Options > Expert Advisors) ═══════

• nfs.faireconomy.media and cdn-nfs.faireconomy.media — the optional news backup feeds.

• Your own relay URL — remote copier only.

The local copier and every guardian function need no internet access at all.

BUSTER CALL — the guardian your EAs answer to.
