I build trading software I can defend line by line: Expert Advisors, indicators and utilities for MT4 and MT5 — each with hard risk controls, documented inputs, and no hidden grid or martingale.

What this is
Pending orders left overnight and positions carried through the weekend are two of the most common ways a planned trade turns into an unplanned risk. This utility handles the clock for you: it cancels pending orders that have been sitting for longer than you allow, closes everything at a session end time you choose, and forces a cut-off before the Friday close.
What it does
Expires stale pending orders, flattens all positions at a chosen session end time, and forces a Friday cut-off before the weekend. Scope by magic, symbol or chart symbol.
- Three time-based lifecycle jobs in one EA with per-day once-only firing; the competing $30 tools do one of these each and none handles the Friday/weekend case.
- Runs on a single chart; it does not need to be the chart you trade from.
- No DLL calls. No external services. No network requests.
- No account, terminal, symbol or time limitation is embedded.

How to use it
- Attach the EA to a chart of the symbol you trade.
- Set the inputs to match your own risk approach. Defaults are deliberately conservative.
- Allow live trading in the Expert Advisors settings for this EA.
- Test on a demo account first. That is not a formality; the defaults are not tuned to your broker.
Notes
- Written for MetaTrader 4, any broker, any account currency. Sizing maths uses the symbol's own tick value.
- Works alongside other EAs, including with a magic number you choose, so it will not fight them for orders it does not own.
- It performs management and measurement only; it does not generate trading signals.
Honest limits
- This is a tool, not a strategy. It does not predict anything and it cannot make a losing method profitable.
- No performance figures are published for it because tools of this kind do not have a meaningful backtest curve of their own.
- If your broker quotes oddly (very wide spreads, non-standard tick values) verify the sizing on a demo account before using real funds.
Trading involves risk of loss. Nothing here is financial advice.
