DESKTOP APP FOR METATRADER 5 / DESKTOP SOFTWARE, NOT A SERVICE

We all have bad days.
Stancel doesn't.

Your whole desk within reach. And the handrail up.

If you are taking a prop firm challenge, one bad day takes the account and what you paid for it. Stancel watches the daily loss limit you set and, when it is reached, closes the positions and blocks order sending.

Out on Tuesday, January 19. The first 100 keys, €149 instead of €249 — see what is included.

The cut

You set the limit once. The rest happens without you, and without asking you to confirm at the worst possible moment.

01

The day’s loss reaches the line

Stancel measures the day’s loss against your limit on every tick, not every minute.

02

It closes whatever is open

Positions close at market. No dialogs, no waiting for you to react.

03

It blocks order sending

Until the next trading day, not one more order leaves your terminal.

WHAT IT DOES · THREE THINGS

Account status

Where you stand today, your open risk and the allowance you have left, drawn over the chart. Without changing window.

Trade plan

Drag entry, stop and target over the price. The lot size works itself out, using the per-trade risk you set.

The handrail

Daily loss, per-trade risk, number of trades. You define them; Stancel applies them on the days you no longer feel like keeping them.

IF YOU TRADE YOUR OWN

No rush. There is still a 2010 interface in the way.

MetaTrader 5 does its job, but it makes you do yours by hand: the lot size in a calculator, the exposure in another window, the day’s risk in your head. Stancel puts the three of them where you are already looking, and leaves the handrail up even when nobody is marking you.

What Stancel does not do

It does not make you money

It does not trade for you or tell you what to buy. The decisions stay yours, with everything that carries.

It does not prevent losses

It limits the damage of a bad stretch; it does not remove it. A market gap or slippage can overshoot the limit.

It does not watch if it is not running

It is desktop software: it runs on your computer with MetaTrader 5 open. If it is off, there is no handrail.

The usual questions

Does Stancel make you money?
No. It does not trade for you or tell you what to buy. The decisions stay yours, with everything that carries.
Does Stancel prevent losses?
No. It limits the damage of a bad stretch; it does not remove it. A market gap or slippage can overshoot the limit.
Does Stancel watch the account while the computer is off?
No. It is desktop software: it runs on your computer with MetaTrader 5 open. If it is off, there is no handrail.
What is the difference between the free and the paid version?
Free reads, paid writes. Free draws the plan and warns you; the full licence is the one that closes the positions and blocks the orders.
Does the licence expire?
No. It is one payment and a perpetual licence: what you buy stays yours. Maintenance is optional and only covers new versions and data.

Tomorrow you still have an account.

That is all it promises. It goes on sale on Tuesday, January 19, and the first 100 keys cost €149 instead of €249. The list hears first: leave your email and on the day you will not have to keep watch.

One email on launch day and little else. You can unsubscribe from any of them.
