Advanced Trade History Exporter: MAE, MFE and Time-Based Excursions (Points) - MetaTrader 5 için komut dosyası

Evaluating your trading edge requires more than just looking at your win rate and net profit. You need to know how efficient your entries and exits are. Are your stop losses too wide? Are you leaving money on the table by closing too early?

This script analyzes your historical deals, reconstructs your trades, and calculates advanced quantitative metrics, outputting everything into a clean .csv file that you can open directly in Excel.

Key Features & Metrics Calculated:

• MAE (Maximum Adverse Excursion): Calculates the maximum number of points the market moved against your position during the lifespan of the trade. Helps you optimize your stop-loss placement.

• MFE (Maximum Favorable Excursion): Calculates the maximum number of points the market moved in your favor before the trade was closed. Helps you identify if you are giving back too many unrealized gains.

• Forward Returns (Time-Based Excursions): Analyzes the exact price difference relative to your entry price at specific future intervals (T+30m, T+1h, T+4h, T+12h, T+1d, T+1w). This answers the quantitative question: "What if I had just held the trade for exactly X hours?" If a future time period hasn't occurred yet, it safely outputs n/a .

• T+1w MIN (Forward Risk): Calculates the absolute worst-case drawdown (maximum adverse points) that occurred over the entire 1-week period following your entry. If the trade never went against you during that week, it reports 0 .

Output Format: The script generates a CSV file with the following columns: Position ID | Symbol | Type | Open Time | Close Time | Duration (Hrs) | Open Price | Close Price | Profit ($) | Profit (Pts) | MAE (Pts) | MFE (Pts) | T+30m | T+1h | T+4h | T+12h | T+1d | T+1w | T+1w MIN

Input Parameters

• Start Date: Choose how far back in your terminal's history you want the script to scan (Default: 2026.01.01 ).
