Overview

Trade Analyzer Panel is a real-time dashboard EA for MetaTrader 5. It consolidates position monitoring, risk analysis, P/L simulation, target profit planning, break-even visualization, and quick close controls into a single scrollable on-chart panel.

Key Features

Installation

1. Copy the file — Place TradeAnalyzerPanel.mq5 into your MT5 data folder:

   [MT5 Data Folder]\MQL5\Experts\

   Find the data folder via MT5 menu: File → Open Data Folder.

2. Compile — Open the file in MetaEditor and press F7. Ensure zero errors.

3. Attach to chart — In MT5 Navigator (Ctrl+N), expand Expert Advisors and drag TradeAnalyzerPanel onto any chart.

4. Enable Algo Trading — The toolbar button must be green. This is required for the Quick Close feature to execute trades.

Important: The Quick Close buttons will send real trade requests. All other features are read-only analysis tools.

Panel Sections

1. Account

Real-time account metrics:

2. Open Positions

Displays up to 12 positions in a table:

Summary rows below show Total Orders, Total P/L, and Total Lots. Unused rows are left blank.

3. Break-Even

Displays break-even information and draws a horizontal line directly on the chart at the price where total P/L for the current symbol equals zero.

How it works:

• The EA calculates the weighted average entry across all buy and sell positions on the current chart symbol, accounting for swap.
• The formula solves for the price at which total P/L = 0:

      BE Price = (-totalSwap × tickSize / tickValue + buyWeightedPrice - sellWeightedPrice) / netLots
  

• A dashed horizontal line is drawn on the chart at this price, updating in real time as positions or swap change.
• The line is automatically removed when there are no positions on the chart symbol or when the EA is removed.

Customization: The line appearance can be configured via input parameters: InpBELineColor (default gold), InpBELineStyle (default dashed), and InpBELineWidth (default 1).

4. Risk Analysis

Calculates how much adverse price movement the account can absorb before the broker's stop-out level. Based on positions on the current chart symbol.

Example: 2.0 lots net-long on XAUUSD, equity $10,000, max drawdown $8,000. If the price range is 400.00 and current price is 2350.00, the estimated stop-out price is 1950.00 ▼.

5. Price Simulator

Enter a hypothetical price to preview P/L if the current chart symbol reaches that level.

Usage: Type a price → press Enter or click CALC.

The simulation applies to positions on the current chart symbol only. Other symbols keep their live P/L. Updates automatically on each refresh cycle.

6. Target Profit Calculator

Enter a desired profit amount and the EA reverse-calculates the required price.

Usage: Type profit in account currency (e.g., 200 for +$200, -100 for -$100) → press Enter or click CALC.

Edge cases:

• Fully hedged positions (net lots ≈ 0) → shows "Hedged/No [symbol]"
• Negative required price → shows "Not achievable"

7. Quick Close

Three action buttons for rapid position management:

Safety mechanism for Close ALL:

The Close ALL button uses a two-click confirmation to prevent accidental closures:

1. First click — The button turns bright red and a warning message appears: !! CONFIRM CLOSE ALL !!
2. Second click — All positions are closed.
3. Clicking any other button — The confirmation resets and the button returns to its normal state.

Warning: Close Profit and Close Loss execute immediately on a single click. Close ALL is the only button with two-click confirmation.

Note: These buttons close positions across all symbols, not just the current chart symbol.

Scrolling

The panel supports scrolling when content extends beyond the visible chart area.

The header stays fixed. Content scrolled above the header is hidden. The background resizes dynamically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this EA place trades?
A: The analysis features (sections 1–6) are strictly read-only. The Quick Close buttons (section 7) do send trade close requests.

Q: Will Quick Close buttons work if Algo Trading is disabled?
A: No. The MT5 Algo Trading button must be enabled (green) for close operations to execute.

Q: Do Close Profit / Close Loss only affect the current chart symbol?
A: No. They close qualifying positions across all symbols on the account.

Q: Why is the break-even line not showing?
A: The line only appears when there are open positions on the current chart symbol with a non-zero net exposure. If positions are fully hedged (equal buy and sell lots), no break-even line is drawn.

Q: The break-even price doesn't match my manual calculation. Why?
A: The EA includes accumulated swap in its break-even calculation. If you calculate purely from open prices, the result will differ when swap is non-zero.

Q: Why does Risk Analysis show nothing?
A: No open positions, or no positions on the current chart symbol.

Q: Can I use this alongside other EAs?
A: MT5 allows only one EA per chart. Use a separate chart window for the same symbol if needed.

Q: The stop-out price seems inaccurate.
A: It's an approximation using current tick value and assuming static market conditions. Real stop-out may differ due to spread changes, swap, and other symbol movements.

Q: How do I scroll the panel?
A: Mouse wheel over the panel, or click ▲/▼ in the header.

Q: How do I reposition the panel?
A: Change InpPanelX and InpPanelY in EA properties (right-click EA → Properties → Inputs).

Technical Details

• Refresh: EventSetMillisecondTimer() for tick-independent updates.
• Max positions displayed: 12 ( MAX_DISPLAY constant).
• Stop-out level: ACCOUNT_MARGIN_SO_SO , fallback 50%.
• Break-even line: OBJ_HLINE object named TAP_BreakEvenLine , drawn with OBJPROP_BACK = true so it renders behind candles. Automatically created/removed based on position state.
• Quick Close: Uses CTrade::PositionClose() . Iterates positions in reverse order to avoid index shifting issues during batch closes.
• Scroll system: Fixed-size arrays ( MAX_SCROLL_OBJ = 250 ) track object names and base Y positions. Header elements are excluded. Objects above the header are moved to Y=-2000 to hide.
