You can do that with one instance of the EA. Your second condition should be Daily profit/loss <= currency units (-100).
Awesome! Thank you for the fast reply.

So the conditions in the following screenshot, will work for either >=100 or -100<=

Is this correct? :)

One last question: does the daily P/L include the floating P/L as well, or only the realized?

Hi Enivid, many thanks for such great EA as AP is.
I have a question regarding the transfer of complete AP setup (including Panel values) to another MT4 terminal.
I have MT4 terminal with cca 20 charts and each chart has own configured AP. I can transfer a MT4 profile and for each AP an EA settings (True/False), but number values like magic included/excluded, profit values, equity conditions etc .... are set in chart Panel window and those setting is after transfer lost.
Is there any chance to transfer complete setup or the Panel values have to be entered each time manually?
Once more thank you.
Best wishes

There should be .txt settings files in MQL4\Files\ named like "AP_<chartID>.txt". You can copy them to your new terminal then use the "Settings file" input parameter to load specific settings file to each chart. The only difficult part is to determine which file corresponds to which instance of the AP and to manually set that input parameter for each instance on the new MT4.

Hi, I am new to this EA.
It is an awesome tool to manage the account and protect from massive losses when the trade reverses.
I have an idea, not sure if is it feasible or not. Please advise.
-Is it possible to set the EA to close all other orders when certain losses (in currency) are reached, and only reopen one trade that is opposite (buy>>sell or sell>>buy) of the last order?
e.g. XAUUSD 0.01 lost $100 in sell, AP closes the order and reopens a buy order of 0.01 (the last closed order only).
TP can be inserted.

Sorry, but that's not possible. It also isn't something I would implement into the Account Protector. In my opinion, it should never be opening new trades.

Hello Enovid,
if I enter 'Magic Numbers' in the filter and do not filter by 'trading instruments' then the conditions and actions only apply this to the Magic Numbers mentioned.
Is that right?

Hello.
Can i config it to take 100$ profit evry day and start a 2:00 am?
Do I understand you correctly that you want to use daily profit threshold of $100 to close all trades and disable autotrading for the day and then restart at 2:00 AM repeating this every day?

This can be done except for the part when you want the day to start at 2:00 AM. It can only work with 00:00 server time.

Thank you for Account Protector, it is awesome!

I would like to know if it is possible to call UpdateMarginSnapshot and UpdateEquitySnapshot when MT5 opens.

I did like this OnInit:

...
MQL5:
else
    {
        // Update snapshots *after* loading settings
        ExtDialog.UpdateEquitySnapshot();
        ExtDialog.UpdateMarginSnapshot();
        ExtDialog.SaveSettingsOnDisk();
    }

And changed: void UpdateEquitySnapshot(); and void UpdateMarginSnapshot(); to public.

Is there a better way?

Thank you!

This would work. The problem is that you'd get your snapshots updated each time you change the chart's timeframe/symbol or restart your MetaTrader.

Hi

numerical value 1.00
OK, 1.00 is 1%. So, if your equity snapshot is, let's say, $100.00, and your current equity is $100.34, it will check $100.34 >= $100 * 1%, which will trigger whenever your current equity is greater than or equal $1.00. Probably, what you want to set in that field is 101.

Hello guys how are you, I would like to use this for a propfirm.

And tell him to close everything or not open any more operations, if for example on the day I go -4%. Is something like this possible? or the most similar to this? Thank you
