EventStrike arms an OCO straddle before a selected high-impact economic-calendar event: a buy stop above price and a sell stop below. The news spike triggers one side; the other is cancelled automatically, and unfilled orders expire on their own after the event.
What makes it different
Most news tools will happily fire on a funded account whose firm bans news trading - and cost you the account. EventStrike checks your firm's rules first: if the firm restricts news trading, it refuses to arm and says so on the panel. If your drawdown budget is thin, it refuses too.
Features
- Driven by the MetaTrader 5 economic calendar: choose currencies and importance; it finds the next event.
- Arms a configurable number of minutes before the event; distance, stop-loss and reward:risk are all adjustable.
- True OCO: the first fill cancels the sibling. Orders use server-side expiry, so they are removed even if your VPS goes down.
- Risk-based sizing per side, capped by your firm's remaining daily budget. Built-in presets for FTMO, FundedNext, The5ers, FTUK, FXIFY.
- On-chart panel: next event, countdown, armed state, budget headroom. Daily event cap.
Important
- The MetaTrader 5 economic calendar is not available inside the Strategy Tester, so EventStrike idles there by design; run it on a live or demo chart before a real event.
- News spreads and slippage are severe; fills can be worse than expected. The default risk and the budget cap exist for this reason. No promise of profit.
- Optional live rule updates use a WebRequest to your PropDesk Hub only if you set a Hub URL; with no URL set, EventStrike makes no web requests.
