Trade History Analyzer MT5

Trade History Analyzer MT5

Trade History Analyzer MT5 is a read-only account analytics and trade-history utility for MetaTrader 5.

It transforms your trading history, open positions and account data into a full-screen analytical dashboard, helping you understand performance, drawdown, trading behaviour, strategy results, symbol exposure and risk without exporting data to spreadsheets or external software.

The utility does not place, modify or close trades.

It can be used with discretionary trading, Expert Advisors, multiple Magic Numbers, multi-symbol accounts and prop-trading accounts.

A complete setup and user guide for Trade History Analyzer MT5 is available here:

Main Features

Performance Analysis

Analyse account and trading performance across selectable periods including:

• Today

• Last 3 days

• Week

• Month

• Year

• All history

• Custom date range

Performance statistics include:

• Net profit

• Gross profit and loss

• Win rate

• Profit factor

• Expectancy

• Average winner and loser

• Trading frequency

• Drawdown statistics

• Equity and account information

The interface is designed to make both high-level results and individual trade behaviour easy to inspect.

Trade History

View closed trades directly inside the utility with sortable columns and detailed trade information.

Trades can be filtered by:

• Symbol

• Expert Advisor / Magic Number

• Manual trades

• Entry comment

• Long or short direction

• Date period

This makes it possible to isolate individual strategies or groups of trades without changing the underlying MT5 account history.

Strategy and Magic Number Analysis

Accounts running several Expert Advisors can be analysed by Magic Number.

Use the breakdown screens to compare:

• Net result

• Number of trades

• Win rate

• Profit factor

• Average trade

• Drawdown

• Long and short performance

Wildcard-style search allows groups of Magic Numbers or related strategies to be investigated together.

Symbol Analysis

Review trading performance by instrument and identify which markets are contributing to profit, loss and trading activity.

The symbol analysis includes:

• Profit and loss

• Trade count

• Win rate

• Performance distribution

• Open exposure

• Comparative symbol statistics

Trading Patterns

Trade History Analyzer provides additional behavioural analysis designed to reveal patterns that may not be obvious from the standard MT5 account history.

Analyse results by:

• Day of week

• Hour of day

• Trading session

• Long versus short direction

• Symbol

• Strategy / Magic Number

Heatmaps and expanded analytical views help highlight when trading performance has historically been strongest or weakest.

Interactive Breakdowns

The utility includes dedicated breakdown views for analysing performance from different perspectives.

Available views include:

• Symbol breakdown

• Strategy / Magic Number breakdown

• Time-based performance

• Profit and loss matrices

• Trading-session analysis

• Calendar-style performance

• Distribution graphics

Tables support scrolling and sortable column headers where appropriate.

Open Positions and Exposure

Open trades are shown separately from historical results.

The utility provides information such as:

• Current floating profit/loss

• Position direction

• Position size

• Open price

• Stop Loss

• Take Profit

• Symbol exposure

• Account margin information

This allows historical analytics and current exposure to be reviewed from the same interface.

Trade History Analyzer can operate in two account modes.

Standard Account

Standard Account mode provides the complete general analytics workspace without prop-specific controls.

It is suitable for:

• Personal trading accounts

• Algorithmic trading accounts

• Portfolio monitoring

• Strategy analysis

• Manual trading journals

• Multi-EA accounts

Prop Account

Prop Account mode adds a dedicated Prop Dashboard while retaining the normal performance, trading-pattern, breakdown and trade-history screens.

The prop system is configurable because proprietary trading programmes may use different calculation methods and limits.

The trader can configure the rules applying to the account rather than relying on a fixed firm-name preset.

Prop Dashboard

The Prop Dashboard provides account-wide monitoring of configured trading limits.

It can display:

• Remaining daily-loss headroom

• Remaining overall-loss headroom

• Current equity thresholds

• Time until daily reset

• Profit-target progress

• Required trading days

• Consistency-rule progress

• Estimated open-position stop risk

• Monitoring status

• Prop-rule events

• Funded-account payout information

Prop calculations use the whole trading account and are not reduced by Symbol, Magic Number or Comment filters used elsewhere in the analytics interface.

Drawdown Models

Configurable drawdown models include:

• Fixed loss limit

• End-of-day trailing drawdown

• Intraday trailing drawdown

This allows the dashboard to represent different programme structures.

Daily Reset Monitoring

Configure the applicable daily reset rules and timezone.

The dashboard can display the remaining time until the next reset and provide an estimate of the account's position after reset using the currently available account information.

Challenge Progress

Track configured challenge requirements including:

• Starting capital

• Profit target

• Realised profit

• Remaining target

• Qualifying trading days

• Challenge start date

Profit-target tracking can be kept separate from floating open-position profit.

Consistency Tracking

For programmes using consistency requirements, the utility can analyse the contribution of the strongest trading day and display progress against the configured rule.

Open-Position Risk

The Prop Dashboard can estimate additional loss to existing Stop Loss levels and highlight positions without a Stop Loss.

This information can then be viewed alongside remaining daily and overall loss headroom.

Stop-loss exposure is an estimate only. Actual execution may differ because of spread, gaps, slippage and market conditions.

Prop Event History

Important monitored events can be recorded with timestamps, including configured rule changes and observed threshold events.

Prop settings and monitoring information are stored separately for each trading account and broker server.

Trade History Analyzer uses a custom on-chart interface designed as an analytical terminal rather than a collection of small MT5 labels.

Features include:

• Full-screen dashboard

• Dark interface

• Dedicated Settings screen

• Expandable analytical panels

• Scrollable tables

• Sortable columns

• On-screen filters

• Search controls

• Detailed tooltips

• Persistent configuration

Changing the chart timeframe does not require the user to configure the utility again. The interface restores the relevant working state after MT5 performs the chart refresh.

On-screen filters allow the same account history to be investigated from different perspectives.

Filter by:

• Symbol

• Magic Number / trading source

• Entry comment

• Trade direction

• Time period

Multiple selections and text-search functions allow large histories containing many symbols and strategies to be analysed efficiently.

Filtering analytical views does not alter the underlying trading account.

Trade History Analyzer is particularly useful where a single MT5 account contains:

• Multiple Expert Advisors

• Several Magic Numbers

• Manual and automated trades

• Multiple symbols

• Different strategy families

Instead of reviewing the entire history as one combined result, the trader can isolate the parts of the account they want to investigate.

User configuration is retained between sessions.

Configuration is separated using the trading account and broker server so that different MT5 accounts can maintain their own settings.

The account can be switched between Standard Account and Prop Account from the Settings screen.

Trade History Analyzer is an analytics utility.

It does not:

• Open trades

• Close trades

• Modify positions

• Change Stop Loss

• Change Take Profit

• Manage lot sizes

• Perform automated trading

This allows it to analyse an account without taking control of trade execution.

Trade History Analyzer analyses the information available from MetaTrader 5.

Historical closed trades cannot prove that an intraday equity threshold was never exceeded while the terminal was offline. Where continuous monitoring is relevant, the utility may indicate monitoring gaps rather than assuming that no breach occurred.

Prop-trading companies can change their programme rules. Users are responsible for entering and confirming the rules applicable to their own account.

Prop Dashboard calculations, reset previews, stop-risk calculations and payout information are analytical estimates and should not be considered a replacement for the official rules or records supplied by the relevant trading provider.

Historical trading performance does not guarantee future results.
