Max daily/weekly/monthly profit/loss (money/percent)

Can you please add an option to stop trading for the day once a certain max target profit is hit on each trading day? This would help a lot in money and risk management. Thank you 

Duplicates 5
TargetProfit (ccy / %) to allow us to withdrawal

TargetProfit in absolute units (I mean "x" eur or usd, the units of the account) or in %. Once reached the EA stop opening new trades (to allow us to withdrawal, for example)

Original idea by Fabio Campos

Max daily/weekly/monthly loss

I am running the EA across 13 charts (FX, Commodities) so there are many instances of it. Would it be possible to have a global risk/money management system? So like a global, daily stop loss in your currency (USD, GBP) and a global profit as well on a daily basis. Or as a % of your balance etc. I think a few people might be doing this. Otherwise, you will just end up installing many instances of MT5 for each account/portfolio you have. Something on a global level would suit me and maybe others

daily target

would like to suggest having a daily target and then ea off “firsts” for the day. for some people, we’d like to aim a certain amount and get out of the market. helps in preventing being stuck in further DD. currently am using another ea to help stop trades the moment it hit target profit. would love to see it built-in CP as well. 

Target Profit/Take Profit for the week?

Is there some way to set a profit target for the week for the bot? Currently, we have a target profit and stop till tomorrow after close which allows a daily profit target. But would there be a current way to set a weekly target? Or could this be looked at to be implemented?

I feel as though the weekly target is much better. Since 1% a day is great. But.. if we don't hit that 1% for the day but do the next day. We're still down on the week if that makes sense? 

I think this would be a really good addition

Add a "Maximum DD"

Not too sure if this has been mentioned anywhere before so apologies if it has!

I had an idea that might be of some use? Limiting the DD the bot is able to make? Say 20% for example. If the current open positions reach a maximum of 20% DD then close the trades and maybe have it set so you're able to stop trading for the day after this has happened?

Would love to know what people think.

Liam,

Max daily loss will work as Max DD. Myabe we need GlobalAccount StopLoss as well, I'll think about that

Ahh okay, that's very true. Didn't think of it like that. GlobalAccount StopLoss would be good too

Not too sure if you removed my comment)(no problem if you did and sorry for asking again if that's the case) or if It never posted but I swear I replied twice


When would we see this implementation live? Or is that what you meant by next week? :)

I think that EA should work as long as it makes a profit. No sense to pause after some profit.

I only want to implement this feature because of loss limits ;)

That's the problem though. Yeah, it should always work as long as it's making a profit but there's always the chance it doesn't make a profit. Hence why some people would want weekly/monthly profits :P
