RavandFX, the forex money management trade assistant for MT5

You pick the direction. The assistant handles lot size, stop, breakeven and daily limits, and like a mentor, holds you to the rules you set yourself.

  • Money-management rules locked into your licence
  • Lot size calculated from your risk
  • Breakeven, profit lock and an autopilot
  • Manual backtesting in the Strategy Tester

How the lock works

Three steps between you and a bad day

  1. Write your rules

    On a calm day, choose your risk per trade, daily loss and profit limits, trades per day and a pause after every trade.

  2. They're locked into your licence

    You can make a rule stricter at any time. Any other change is allowed once a month, takes effect 24 hours later and can be cancelled before then.

  3. RavandFX enforces them

    Every lot size is calculated from your risk. Hit your daily loss limit or profit target and the panel closes your trades and stops new ones until the next day.

Money management

What is forex money management, and why does it matter so much?

Money management is the set of rules that decides how much you risk on each trade, how big each position is, and when you stop trading. Analysis tells you where to enter. Money management decides what a wrong entry costs you.

Most trading accounts are not blown by bad analysis. They are blown by one oversized trade, a stop dragged further away, or a day that kept going after two losses. Money-management rules stop exactly those moments, as long as they are actually followed.

Your account after 10 losses in a row, at different risk per trade
1%−9.6%
2%−18.3%
5%−40.1%
10%−65.1%

Recovering from a 65% drawdown takes a gain of almost 190% just to get back to where you started. That is why risk per trade should be small and fixed.

How it helps

How the RavandFX trade assistant keeps your money management rules

Locked rules

Risk per trade, daily profit and loss limits, trades per day and a pause after every trade are set once and locked into your licence. A bad day can't switch them off.

Lot size from your risk

Drag the stop on the chart and the lot size is calculated instantly so the possible loss never exceeds the percent you set. A lot cap based on your balance also stops oversized trades with very tight stops.

Protect your profit

RiskFree moves the stop to entry plus costs, LockTP locks in a dollar profit, and when you're away from the chart the autopilot keeps managing the trade.

Practise without risk

Try the panel free in the online simulator, or run manual backtests on real historical data in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester during your free trial.

Who it's for

Who RavandFX is built for

  • Forex and gold traders who trade manually on MetaTrader 5 and want exact lot size and risk on every trade.
  • Prop firm challengers for whom the daily loss limit and maximum drawdown are hard red lines.
  • Scalpers who need speed: FastScalp enters and exits with one key, still at a calculated lot size.
  • Traders who can't watch the chart all day who open the trade and hand its management to the autopilot.
  • Newer traders who want to practise both strategy and discipline in the Strategy Tester and the simulator before real money.
  • Index and stock CFD traders who trade indices and stock market CFDs through a broker in MetaTrader 5 and want the same money management rules.

Questions about RavandFX

What is RavandFX?

RavandFX is a money-management assistant for MetaTrader 5 that locks your rules into your licence and enforces them on every trade: risk per trade, daily loss and profit limits, trades per day and a pause after each trade. Its panel on your chart calculates lot size from your risk, places entry, stop and target, and manages the trade.

Does RavandFX work on the stock market too?

RavandFX works on any symbol your broker offers in MetaTrader 5: forex pairs, gold, indices and stock market CFDs. Lot size comes from that symbol's tick value, and your money management rules apply the same way on all of them. It does not work on exchanges or platforms outside MetaTrader 5.

Can I change my rules later?

Yes, within limits. Making a rule stricter is allowed at any time and applies immediately. Any other change, such as raising your risk, is allowed once a month, takes effect 24 hours after you ask, and can be cancelled before then. It is there to fix a mistake, not to undo your plan in a bad moment. When you renew, you can choose new rules.

Is RavandFX a trading robot or a signal service?

No. You always choose the direction and the entry, and you always open the first trade yourself. RavandFX is a money and trade management tool and does not guarantee profit.

Which platform does it run on?

On any computer that runs desktop MetaTrader 5: Windows, macOS, Linux or a VPS. The MT5 phone apps can't run Expert Advisors. If you want trades managed while your computer is off, use a VPS.

Can I try it before buying?

Yes, in two ways: the online simulator with no install, and a 3-day free trial with every feature on your own account. During the trial you can also use it in the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester on real historical data.

Is it suitable for prop firm accounts?

Yes. Set your daily loss limit, trade limit and risk per trade below your prop firm's limits and the panel stops you before you reach them. Always read your own firm's rules too.

How much does RavandFX cost?

After the 3-day free trial, a 1-month licence is $39, 3 months $99 and 6 months $149. Every plan includes every feature, and nothing renews automatically.
