Risk Management Suite

You set your risk to 2%. The trade goes against you. You move the stop. It goes further. You move it again. By the time you close, you have lost four times what you planned, and the next three trades are spent trying to dig out of a hole you dug yourself. The Risk Management Suite is the layer that prevents that sequence from starting.

It is a position sizing and trade management expert advisor for MetaTrader 5. You attach it to a chart, set how much of your account you are willing to lose on a single position, and it handles the arithmetic. Every trade it opens, whether you click the button or it enters on its own, is sized against your equity, capped against your total account exposure, and given a stop loss before the order reaches the server.

The failure it removes is the one where a single trade, or a cluster of trades across symbols you forgot were correlated, takes out a month of gains. At 2 a.m., when the Tokyo session gaps against your GBPUSD position while your gold trade is also underwater, the margin call does not care about your original plan. The Suite measures risk across every open position in the account, not just the chart you are looking at, and it blocks new entries that would push your total exposure past the ceiling you set.

Once attached, the Suite reads current volatility to size your stop, calculates the lot that keeps your loss inside your per-trade limit, and checks whether your account can absorb another position without breaching the total risk cap. If the answer is no, the trade does not happen. If the answer is yes, the order goes out with the stop already in place. After that, the Suite watches the position. It can trail the stop behind price, move to breakeven once you are in profit, and scale out at predetermined levels if you enable those modules. The management runs on every tick and does not require you to babysit.

What it does not do: it does not predict direction. The automatic entry module uses a simple breakout of recent bars, and that is not an edge. It is a trigger for the risk engine to do its job. If you are looking for a signal service, this is not it. The Suite also does not guarantee that your broker will fill your stop at the exact price, does not protect against slippage during news, and does not manage positions on symbols other than the one the chart is attached to unless you tell it to. It is a risk layer, not a strategy.

Who it is for: discretionary traders who already have a method but keep giving back profits because their position sizing is inconsistent, and systematic traders who want a second set of eyes on account-level exposure before every order. Who should not buy it: anyone hoping to pass a prop firm challenge by letting the EA trade for them, anyone who wants a fully automated strategy with entry and exit signals, and anyone who cannot resist overriding a stop loss after it is set. The Suite will place the stop. It will not stop you from removing it manually.Disclosure: the automatic entry module is enabled by default. When you first attach the Suite to a chart, it will open trades on its own using a breakout trigger, subject to all the risk checks described above. This is stated here, plainly. To switch it off, set the automatic entry input to false in the expert parameters. The manual BUY and SELL buttons remain available. The margin safety exit, which closes positions when free margin falls below a threshold you set, is also enabled by default. It can be disabled the same way. The Suite does not hide these behaviours in a submenu.

Test the Suite on a demo account before you risk real money. Run it through a week of your normal trading, check that the position sizes match what you intended, and confirm that the margin safety exit behaves the way you expect. The Suite is a risk management tool. It is not a substitute for a trading plan.

Download the demo, attach it to a chart, and watch what happens the next time you are tempted to move a stop.
