How to Use
- Attach the Script:
- Drag and drop the script onto your MetaTrader 5 chart or double-click it in the Navigator.
- Configure Parameters:
- RiskRewardRatio: Enter your desired Risk:Reward ratio (default: 2.0 for 1:2).
- StopLossPips: Specify the Stop Loss distance in pips (default: 20 pips).
- Run the Script:
- The script will automatically detect open positions for the current symbol and apply the calculated SL and TP levels.
- Check Results:
- A confirmation message will appear in the MetaTrader 5 terminal, showing the modified SL and TP for each position.
Example
- If you set StopLossPips = 20 and RiskRewardRatio = 2.0 , the script will:
- Set a Stop Loss 20 pips away from the entry price.
- Set a Take Profit 40 pips away from the entry price (based on a 1:2 ratio).
- For a Buy position at 1.2000:
- SL = 1.1980
- TP = 1.2040
Why Use This Script?
- Time-Saving: Eliminates manual SL/TP calculations.
- Consistency: Ensures your trades follow a disciplined Risk:Reward strategy.
- Versatility: Works with any symbol (Forex, commodities, indices) and account type.
Installation
- Download the script from the MQL5 Codebase.
- Place the .mq5 file in the MQL5/Scripts folder of your MetaTrader 5 directory.

Notes
- Ensure you have open positions on the chart's symbol before running the script.
