In trading, profits often take centre stage, but survival is built on effective risk management. Without strong protection, even the best strategy can unravel in a single volatile session. That's why we've developed a suite of professional-grade risk management tools for cTrader, built not to promise riches, but to help you trade with confidence and discipline.
Account Equity Protector for cTrader
Think of this as a circuit breaker for your account. The Account Equity Protector runs quietly in the background, monitoring your balance and equity against predefined thresholds. If your account equity falls below your chosen limit, the cBot can automatically close open positions, cancel pending orders, and stop further trading until the next reset.
It's like a seatbelt for your trading account. You hope you never need it, but you'll be glad it's there when the market turns.
Smart Break-Even Manager for cTrader
Most traders learn the value of break-even stops the hard way. Move them too soon, and you choke profitable trades. Move them too late, and small winners slip back into losses. The Smart Break-Even Manager takes out the guesswork.
It lets you to define pip thresholds, add buffers, and automatically adjust stop-losses when specific conditions are met. That way, your winners are protected, and your losers stay small, without constant manual tinkering.

It doesn't make decisions for you; it makes sure you don't forget your own rules in the heat of the moment.
Why Risk Management Tools Matter
