Forex Flipper EA

No — this is the exception among my EAs. Forex Flipper is a manual trading tool: an on-chart dashboard that helps YOU place and manage trades by hand. You drag the entry, take-profit and stop lines where you want them and click to place the order; the dashboard then manages each trade (break-even, partial take-profit, close) individually. It does not decide when or where to trade for you.

Guard is Forex Flipper’s built-in discipline feature — an optional, opt-in daily-limit commitment device. You choose limits for the day (max trades, how many you may hold open at once, max daily loss, how much of the day’s best balance you may give back, a maximum lot size per trade, a profit target, and up to two trading windows) and commit them. With AUTO commit on, the same limits are committed again at the start of every following day until you switch it off. Once committed they are frozen for the rest of the day and cannot be loosened — not by re-attaching the EA, editing inputs, or changing your PC clock, because the limits live on my server and the day is measured in UTC there. There is also a LOCK OUT FOR TODAY button: one press, one confirmation, and everything open is closed and new trades are blocked until the reset — no committed limits required. Money you pay in or take out after committing is left out of all of it, so the limits measure your trading and not your transfers. Any lock lifts on its own when the trading day resets at midnight UTC.

Yes — that is the whole point. Because you can always place an order through MT5’s own New Order window, Guard does not just block the dashboard’s button; it polices trades you placed by hand too. What it does when a limit is hit depends on the limit. Your max loss, your HWM trailing giveback and your profit target END the day: every open position in scope is closed and every pending cancelled, because ending the day is what those three are for. Your trade limit, your max-at-once limit and your trading windows only BLOCK NEW ENTRIES — a trade you already have on is left alone to reach its own take-profit or stop, since it was opened inside the rules. Pending orders are cancelled either way, because a pending is a new trade waiting to happen. The LOCK OUT FOR TODAY button closes everything, like the first three. One honest caveat: Guard can only enforce while the EA is attached to a chart. Removing it lets you trade unguarded — but that is a deliberate choice you have to make, and your committed limits stay frozen on the server until the day resets at midnight UTC.

On the dashboard, not in the inputs. Pick a risk mode — a fixed lot size, a percentage of the account risked to your stop, or a fixed cash amount in your account currency — type the amount, and Forex Flipper works out the lot size from your entry and stop lines when you place the order. The size is always rounded down to your broker’s lot step rather than to the nearest one, so a trade never risks more than the figure you set — the only exception being a broker minimum lot that is already bigger than your risk allows, which the EA reports in the Experts tab rather than letting it pass unnoticed. It also detects cent accounts automatically, so the maths stays correct there too.

Yes. You can hold as many trades at once as you like — or cap that number yourself with Guard’s max-at-once limit, which frees a slot up again every time a trade closes. Each open position gets its own on-chart profit box with one-click break-even and partial-take-profit buttons, plus its own draggable trigger lines, so you manage every trade independently right on the chart — and CLOSE ALL flattens the lot in one click. If you stack several positions in the same direction, the DCA lines show the blended break-even for the whole basket plus a draggable combined take-profit and stop-loss, each labelled with what the group would make or lose there — so you can see exactly where the basket exits at cost.

Yes. Switch the ALARM button on the Placement tab on and the dashboard plays a loud sound the moment price reaches one of your lines — your stop, your take-profit, or a break-even or partial-take-profit trigger. Each of those four is armed separately behind the gear beside the button, and all four start on. It follows the trade through: before you place the order it watches the lines you dragged, and once the order is live it watches the position’s own levels, so the alarm does not go quiet the moment you click. Turn PUSH on as well and the same alert goes to the MetaQuotes app on your phone — that needs your MetaQuotes ID entered in MT5 under Tools → Options → Notifications, which no EA can do for you, so the settings page shows you live whether your terminal is ready to send it.

Yes — the dashboard has a Performance tab that opens a full-screen dashboard from your own closed trades on the account: a scorecard of trades taken, win rate, profit factor, return-vs-drawdown, net P&L and commission, a Net P&L curve, a Drawdown curve showing how far you sit below your account high, a deposits-vs-withdrawals bar chart, plus profit-factor bars broken down by long vs short and by time of day. You can filter the whole view down to a single instrument. It is your real numbers, updated as you trade.

Any of the partners works — Fusion Markets, Ultima Markets, or an E8 Markets prop-firm account, where a manual tool with a daily-limit Guard is a natural fit. If you want to get comfortable with the dashboard and Guard on real market conditions without risking much, run it on a cent account: about $100 on an Ultima Markets Cent account behaves like a much larger standard account, so it is the ideal low-cost way to practise.

The same way as my other EAs: open a live account with one of the partner brokers, then submit the request form on the main page with your account number. Once I activate it, Forex Flipper runs on that account. The license is bound to that one account number.
