Prop Guard Pro

PropGuard Pro is a professional-grade risk management Expert Advisor built specifically for prop firm traders. It monitors your account in real time, enforces drawdown limits, time-based rules, and position constraints — then auto-closes trades the instant a rule is breached. Never fail a funded challenge because of a preventable mistake again.
