Monitoring Trading Account Health with Margin, Drawdown, and Exposure

Summary

The document describes a MetaTrader indicator that presents account condition and risk measures in one dashboard. It displays balance, equity, margin, drawdown, floating profit or loss, open-position count, total lot exposure, and spread. The stated purpose is monitoring: the indicator does not place or manage trades, and it updates the displayed values automatically.

Its central feature is a score from 0 to 100 based on margin usage, drawdown, and open-position exposure. The score is mapped to qualitative states such as warning or critical, while custom risk thresholds allow users to adjust how conditions are classified. This offers a compact view of several account metrics, but the document does not specify the scoring formula, threshold defaults, or how the score should guide decisions. It provides no performance evidence, risk model validation, or asset-specific guidance, so the score should be understood as a summary display rather than a demonstrated measure of future loss.

Key ideas

• The indicator aggregates balance, equity, margin, drawdown, exposure, and other account information.
• Its health score combines margin use, drawdown, and open-position exposure.
• Score bands translate the numeric result into qualitative account condition states.
• Custom thresholds can adapt the display to different monitoring preferences.
• The tool is described as an analysis aid and does not execute or manage trades.
