The article explores the implementation of a refined risk manager class for MetaTrader 5, focusing on adaptive position sizing and profit-target features. It details enhancements to a risk management system, allowing smoother adjustments in position sizes when loss thresholds are met, and introduces parameters to halt trading upon reaching a set profit target—a feature beneficial for prop trading.
