Core Functionality

Franklin includes flexible general settings such as a fast backtesting mode, an on chart information panel, custom order comments, and a unique magic number. Trading can be configured in hedge mode, long only, or short only depending on the trader’s strategy.

Money management is fully customizable. Traders can choose between fixed lot sizing or percentage based risk calculated from balance or equity. A fixed risk amount per trade can also be defined, allowing precise control over exposure.

Trade Management and Protection

All positions opened by Franklin include a stop loss and take profit. Advanced trade management tools are integrated, including trailing stop loss with adjustable activation distance, trailing step size, and trailing distance. Trailing take profit functionality allows profits to be protected dynamically as price moves favorably. A break even system is also included, moving stop loss to entry plus an optional buffer once a defined profit level is reached.

Entry protections help prevent unfavorable trades by controlling spread conditions and limiting the number of open positions, total lots, and trades per candle.

Risk and Account Safety
