Professional Drawdown Monitoring & Risk Alert System
Drawdown Sentinel is a specialized utility designed for traders who need real-time monitoring of their account exposure and drawdown levels. This version focuses on providing instant awareness, allowing you to stay informed about your risk status without the need for automated intervention.
It is essential for all traders who use 'risky' EAs that may not have been thoroughly tested or which use dangerous martingale or grid strategies that could suddenly increase your drawdown, resulting in your account being blown out if you are not constantly present.
Or more simply, if you want an additional security when the risky EA is trading with real money and you are not sure that it uses truly reliable capital protection strategies.
While the professional version of this tool includes automated emergency liquidations, this Sentinel Edition is the perfect companion for manual traders who want to maintain 100% control over their trade closures while benefiting from a sophisticated alert engine.
Core Functionalities
-
Real-Time Equity Tracking: Constantly monitors your floating drawdown and equity fluctuations.

-
Manual Intervention: Ideal for traders who prefer to evaluate market conditions personally before closing positions.
Looking for Automated Equity Protection?
