Drawing tools such as trend lines, support and resistance markers, Fibonacci retracements, and geometric shapes assist with pattern identification. Save chart templates to maintain consistency across different symbols and sessions.

The platform provides nine timeframes: M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1, W1, and MN1. Users can switch between these to suit scalping, intraday, swing, or position trading strategies.

Customize chart colors, grids, and backgrounds for personal preference. The window management system allows simultaneous display of multiple charts arranged in tile, cascade, or custom layouts. Synchronizing symbol changes across charts supports comparative analysis.

Order Management System

Order Types and Execution

FxPro supports both market and pending orders within MetaTrader 4. Market orders execute immediately at current prices. Pending orders include Buy Stop, Sell Stop, Buy Limit, and Sell Limit options.

Traders can set expiration dates on pending orders for precise timing. Modifying orders to adjust stop loss, take profit, or entry price is straightforward through the Terminal window. Partial or full position closure is available at any time.

Our execution model avoids requotes on market orders, with spreads starting at 0.6 pips on EUR/USD pairs, suited for the Namibian market environment.

Risk Management Features

Stop loss orders limit potential downside, while take profit orders lock in gains automatically. Trailing stops dynamically adjust stop loss levels as the market moves favorably.

The platform includes a position size calculator, real-time margin monitoring, and automatic margin call alerts. Stop-out levels trigger forced position closure to prevent negative balances.

• Real-time profit and loss tracking
• Margin level monitoring
• Automatic position closure at stop-out

Our MetaTrader 4 supports automated trading using Expert Advisors (EAs). Upload EAs via the Navigator window by dragging them onto active charts. Configure EA parameters such as lot size, risk tolerance, and trading hours.

Activate automated trading by enabling the “Auto Trading” button in the toolbar. Monitor EA activity and results through the Terminal’s Expert tab. Multiple EAs can operate simultaneously across various instruments and timeframes.

Strategy Testing and Optimization

Use the built-in Strategy Tester to backtest EAs against historical market data. Select specific testing periods, symbols, and data quality models for accurate results.

Optimize EA settings using the genetic algorithm feature, which tests parameter combinations to find the most effective. Export optimization reports for further review and strategy refinement.
