CHAPTER01
Size

Drag the stop. Read the lot.

Type your risk once. Move the stop loss line on the chart and the lot size follows it live, with every number on the planner card before you open the trade.

Planner card: 1.00 % risk, 3.79 lot, entry 1.12072, SL 1.11937 at 135 points
Fig. 1.1 · Panel left, planner card right. Red zone = risk, green zone = target.Net R:R above the target: 1 : 3.2
Risk

Three ways to set it

Percent of balance, percent of equity, or a fixed amount in your account currency.

BALANCE % · EQUITY % · AMOUNT $
Stop line

The lot follows the line

Below the price it is a buy, above the price a sell. Lots are rounded to your broker's lot step.

Lot: 22.25 | 511.35 USD (1.00%)
Planner card

Every number before you click

Entry, stop distance in points and the result at your target. The net R:R sits above the green zone.

Entry 1.12072 · SL 1.11937 · 135p
Pending & OCO

Enter at your price

SizerX picks limit or stop for you. With OCO it places a second order on the other side and deletes the one that does not fill.

SELL LIMIT · EXPIRY 10 min · OCO: ON
Commission

Counted in, both sides

Enter your commission and SizerX includes it in the lot size and in the R:R, so the loss at your stop is the risk you set.

3.39 lot → 2.30 lot · 1 : 5.0 → 1 : 3.1
CHAPTER02
Manage

Plan the exit. SizerX runs it.

Break-even, partial close, take profit and trailing stop work from lines you place on the chart. You set the plan, SizerX carries it out.

Fig. 2.1 · One trade, four armed lines: stop loss, break-even, partial close, take profit.
Lines

Three states, no surprises

Every tool is a line: off, plan or active. A line you drag by accident goes back to plan and cannot trigger.

OFF → PLAN → ACTIVE
Break-even

Auto or right now

Arm a break-even line or move the stop to entry with one click, with commission included if you want.

AUTO BE: ACTIVE · BE NOW
Partial close

Instantly or at a line

Close a set percentage now or when the price reaches your line. The label shows what the closed part banks in R.

50% +2.9R
Trailing stop

Four ways to follow the price

Moves your real stop at the broker, only in your favour. Its timeframe can differ from the chart, for example M5 trailing on M1.

LINE · CANDLE · PRICE ACTION · ATR
Positions

Two trades per chart

Each position keeps its own break-even, partial, take profit and trailing settings.

POS #1 · POS #2
CHAPTER03
Pyramid

Add layers. One common stop.

Add new positions only while the trade is going your way. Each layer moves one common stop for the whole pyramid, so your original risk does not grow.

Build

Bands or auto

Place band lines where new layers should open, or let AUTO add a layer on a candle close or a breakout after a pullback.

BAND → 2. layer | 1.76 lot | CSL 1.12081
Common stop

Set as a result, not a price

Choose where the whole pyramid ends if the stop is hit: break-even, −1R, +0.5R. It only moves forward.

Common SL: BE · if hit −1.1R
Lot modes

Pyramid, fixed or risk

Smaller layers each time, the same size every time, or sized from the result already locked in.

1.00 → 0.75 → 0.56 …
Guards

Limits you set once

A maximum number of layers, a minimum stop distance, and a giveback rule that closes the pyramid if it returns a set part of its best result.

MAX LAYERS 5 · MIN SL DIST 0.5R · GIVEBACK 30%

The pyramid module needs a hedging account. On netting accounts SizerX tells you at start.

CHAPTER04
Protect

Rules that hold on a bad day.

Set the limits once in the Settings card. SizerX watches the whole account and acts before a limit is reached, not after.

Account protection settings: daily limit on, max daily loss 2.0 %, prop firm mode on, account size 50 000, daily limit 5.0 %, max DD 10.0 % static
News watch settings: on, alert 15 min before, medium impact off
Panel row: HIGH 16:45 USD (55m)
Next event on the panel

Daily loss limit

Acts at 90% of your limit: it closes every position on the account, deletes pending orders and locks trading for the rest of the day.

Limit 2.0 % → acts at 1.80 %

Prop firm mode

Enter your challenge rules: account size, target, daily limit and max drawdown, static or trailing. Two bars on the panel show the room you have left.

50 000 · Daily 5.0 % · Max DD 10.0 %

News watch

The next high-impact event from the MT5 calendar sits on the panel, with an alert before it and a warning if you have open positions.

HIGH 16:45 USD (55m)

Built-in safety

Positions are recovered after a restart. A click on the panel never reaches the chart. Two copies cannot manage the same trades.

All in one

Six tools. One panel.

What usually takes several separate tools on one chart, each with its own settings and its own window, is one panel in SizerX.

FAQ

Questions and answers.

Something missing? Write to support@sizerx.io.

Can I try SizerX before I buy?

Yes. Download the free demo from the MQL5 Market and run it in the visual Strategy Tester in MetaTrader 5. Every feature is included. The tester does not allow dragging lines with the mouse, so SizerX adds a small row with arrow buttons to move them.

Does it work on MetaTrader 4?

No. SizerX is made for MetaTrader 5 only.

Does SizerX decide when to trade?

No. It is a risk and trade management tool, not a signal service. You choose every entry. SizerX sizes the trade from your risk and carries out the rules you set with the lines on the chart.

Can I use it on a prop firm account?

Yes. Prop firm mode follows your challenge rules: daily limit, max drawdown and target. Check first that your prop firm allows Expert Advisors on your account type. If it does not, the free Sizer Planner indicator shows the lot size and the numbers, and you enter the trade yourself.

Does MetaTrader need to stay open?

Partial close, take profit and the OCO cancellation are carried out by SizerX, so MetaTrader must be running. Break-even and trailing move the real stop at your broker, but their next steps also need SizerX running. If you hold trades with your PC off, use a VPS.

Does it work on a netting account?

Yes, except the pyramid module, which needs a hedging account because each layer is a separate position.

Is my broker's commission counted?

Yes, if you enter it. SizerX then includes it in the lot size, the R:R and, if you choose, the break-even level.

How do I buy or rent it?

On the MQL5 Market, from the SizerX product page. You can buy it or rent it monthly. MetaTrader 5 installs it for you.
