Main Features
Risk Calculation
Trade Assistant MT4 Standard allows you to calculate risk before opening a trade.
Available risk calculation modes:
fixed amount in deposit currency;
percentage of Balance;
percentage of Equity;
percentage of Free Margin;
percentage of Custom base amount.
This helps the trader understand the potential loss in advance and follow money management rules.
Lot Calculation
The panel calculates position volume based on:
selected risk;
entry price;
distance to Stop Loss;
trading instrument specification;
tick size;
tick value;
minimum and maximum volume;
lot step;
commission, if specified in the settings.
The calculated lot is displayed in the panel together with the estimated risk, potential profit, and risk/reward ratio.
Entry / Stop Loss / Take Profit Lines
The panel displays the key trade levels on the chart:
Entry;
Stop Loss;
Take Profit.
The lines help visually prepare the trading scenario before opening a position.
You can change values in the panel or move the lines directly on the chart.
Risk / Reward Mode
The RR mode allows Take Profit to be calculated automatically relative to Stop Loss.
Example:
R/TP = 3;
R/SL = 1.
This means that Take Profit will be calculated three times farther than Stop Loss.
This function is convenient for traders who use a fixed risk/reward ratio.
Visual Trade Map
Trade Assistant MT4 Standard can display the visual trade structure on the chart:
risk zone;
potential profit zone;
Entry;
Stop Loss;
Take Profit;
calculated lot;
risk;
potential profit;
risk/reward ratio.
This allows the trader to evaluate the trade faster before entering the market.
Trade Opening
Unlike the free Risk Calculator, the Standard version supports basic order execution.
The panel can be used for:
Market Buy;
Market Sell;
Buy Stop;
Sell Stop;
Buy Limit;
Sell Limit.
Before sending an order, the panel calculates the position volume and checks the basic trade parameters.
Basic Position Management
Trade Assistant MT4 Standard includes several functions for managing an open position:
Breakeven
The Breakeven button moves the Stop Loss of an open position to the entry level.
This helps lock the trade at breakeven after the trader decides to reduce the initial risk.
Partial Close
The Close % button closes part of the position by the specified percentage.
This function can be used for:
partial profit taking;
reducing position volume;
gradual exit from the trade.

Important Notes
Trade Assistant MT4 Standard is not a signal system and does not forecast market direction.

It helps calculate trade parameters, prepare levels, and perform basic trading actions.
The final decision on entry, exit, and position management is always made by the trader.
Before using it on a real account, it is recommended to test the panel on a demo account and check the broker’s trading conditions: spread, commission, minimum lot, lot step, leverage, and Stop Level restrictions.

It is a convenient intermediate option for traders for whom the free calculator is no longer enough, but who do not yet need the full PRO feature set.
