psycho 3.1 turns a single draggable line into your stop, your position size, and your break-even — so you enter with the risk already decided.
Scalping needs one single click, on time — then everything auto-sets.
pshyco 3.1 closes that gap — all in one.
You've been here before: your strategy looks flawless on history. Every entry lines up, every stop is exactly where it should be, every take-profit hits at a clean 1:3. High win rate, backtest after backtest. Then you trade it live — and the same day, on the same setups, your results come back red.
By evening you re-analyze the very candles you lost on, and there it is: it should have been a winning day. The setup was right. So why did the live account lose?
Because a backtest doesn't have to fight the clock. On history, your entry price, lot size, stop and take-profit are all calculated with zero delay — perfect, because nothing is moving while you calculate. In live market conditions, price never waits. The seconds it takes to open the panel, size the position, and set your levels are seconds the market spends moving without you. By the time your order is in, your entry price has already shifted — and with it, every ratio your risk management depended on.
That's the gap that turns a "should-have-been winner" into a real loss: a live entry that was a few ticks off from the one your strategy actually needed — and for a prop-firm trader, a few ticks of imprecise risk is exactly what breaches the rules meant to protect the account.
psycho 3.1 was built to close that gap — the moment you decide the trade, the exact entry, lot size, SL and TP are already locked in, calculated before price has the chance to move away from you.
psycho 3.1 also shows a live candle countdown, timed to whichever timeframe you're working on. Why does that matter? The logic — and the benefit — is that it lets you enter the position at exactly the right moment, avoiding slippage or price jumps, especially during high-momentum conditions and scalping strategies, where even a few ticks matter enormously.
The countdown lets you keep watching the open candle while knowing precisely when it will close, so you can fire your entry in the final second before it closes — rather than after the new candle opens with a jump, or gap, toward your supposed take-profit, or even runs fast toward it before you manage to click the execution button. That's exactly the issue described in the first problem we solved, Fast Execution: a delayed entry pushes your actual entry ticks away from where your strategy calls for it, leaving your take-profit further from reach than it should be. This is precisely why you keep losing in live performance with a strategy that is, in truth, winning — unlike what your history analysis shows.
You've felt this one too: price hits your stop loss by the exact tick — as if, out of millions of traders worldwide, the market singled you out — and then turns and runs straight to the take-profit you had planned. It's maddening, and over time it wears down your confidence in your own analysis.
But that candle proves the opposite of what it feels like. Your strategy read the next move correctly. What actually happened wasn't a bad trade — it was a liquidity grab. The market swept the stops sitting exactly where most traders place them, collected that liquidity, and then continued in the direction your analysis expected all along. Your setup didn't fail. It got manipulated.
So the real question is: have you ever been able to trade the same way the market manipulates you? psycho 3.1 does exactly that. It turns many of the trades your strategy would otherwise count as losses — the ones stopped out by a weak wick before reversing back toward your original target — into winners.
It does this because the stop it manages for you isn't a real broker-side stop loss. A real SL sits visibly on the broker's book, in the same cluster of prices where everyone else's stops sit — exactly the liquidity a sweep is designed to collect. psycho 3.1 instead holds your SL as a memorized price level, invisible to the broker and to the market. Your trade only closes when a full candle closes beyond that level — not the moment price merely touches or even briefly crosses it.
The result: you get the same protection a real stop would give you if you stepped away from the chart, without ever handing your liquidity to a stop hunt. A trade that would have been closed and counted as a loss the moment a wick touched your SL instead stays open, rides out the manipulation, and is free to reach the take-profit your strategy expected in the first place. The trade-off is honest: because the close only triggers on a confirmed candle close, your eventual loss on a trade that does reverse for real can run a little past the risk amount you defined in the EA's inputs — a small extra cost, in exchange for no longer losing trades to manipulation alone.
And this memorized SL line isn't fixed once the trade is open — it's draggable. You can grab it and drop it wherever you want at any point during the trade, adjusting your protection level on the fly as the market develops.
Plenty of scalping strategies don't start from the stop loss at all — they start from the take-profit. You watch the chart, and the moment you spot the opportunity, what you actually know is the price you expect the market to reach next. The stop loss only gets placed afterward, wherever it needs to sit to respect your risk-reward ratio.
That order of operations sounds simple, but it flips the math that makes position sizing easy. Calculating the correct lot size for a pre-defined risk amount is straightforward when you already know your SL distance — it gets far more complicated when the SL is the variable you're solving for last, derived from a TP you picked first. Doing that math by hand, fast enough to still catch the entry, is exactly the kind of friction that breaks scalping setups.
This is exactly what the TP-line version of psycho 3.1 is built to remove. Instead of dragging a memo line to set your stop, you drag a draggable take-profit line to the price you expect the move to reach. You place it after your analysis, then simply wait for your strategy's conditions to actually trigger. The moment they do, you click buy or sell on the chart — and from that single click, everything else is set and calculated automatically, in real time.
The memorized SL is placed for you based on your risk-reward ratio, your take-profit sits exactly where you dropped the line, and your lot size is calculated precisely for the risk amount you defined in the EA's inputs — no manual math, no delay, no guessing your way backward from a target price to a safe position size.
Live, pre-defined TP/SL and instant risk calculations only matter if you can actually act on them fast enough — and that's exactly why they're built straight into the chart. psycho 3.1 puts clear BUY / SELL buttons directly on the chart, merged with the EA itself, so you execute using everything already calculated for you without ever opening the platform's built-in order window.
That turns your entries genuinely easy: define your TP or SL — whichever version you're running — watch the market, click buy or sell the moment your setup triggers, and walk away. The EA handles the rest. The whole point of this feature is to strip out confusion and stress at the exact moment you need to move fast.
The buttons carry that logic one step further with a built-in safeguard: if you're on the TP-line version and drag the line above price, the SELL button disables itself automatically so you can never enter the wrong side by mistake — a mistake that can be fatal in scalping, where price moves fast and there's no time to undo it. Move the line below price, and BUY disables instead, SELL becomes active. The same logic applies if you're running the memorized-SL line version. This isn't a delayed check either — it happens live, in real time, exactly as you drag the line, so there's never a gap where a wrong-side click could slip through.
There's a scenario almost every trader has lived through: a position runs well, gets to within a few ticks of take-profit — sometimes even touching that exact TP price on the bid or ask, depending on whether it's a buy or a sell — and still doesn't trigger. Then, instead of finishing the job, it reverses completely and runs all the way back down to the stop loss. A trade that was effectively won on paper closes as a full loss.
psycho 3.1 solves this with a different mechanism than the memorized-SL logic used earlier in the trade. Once your position reaches a profit level you define, the EA places a real broker-side stop loss at break-even — not a memorized value this time, but an actual order sitting with your broker. From that point on, your position can only end one of two ways: take-profit triggers, or it closes at break-even. The scenario described above — reversing all the way back to a real loss after nearly hitting TP — becomes structurally impossible once that break-even stop is in place.
Because it's a real stop, it protects you even when you're away from your device — no need to watch the chart to make sure the position doesn't give back everything it gained. And the trigger point is entirely yours to set: the EA's inputs let you freely define the percentage of profit at which the position should switch from memorized SL to real break-even, so you decide how much room a trade gets before it's locked risk-free.
If you trade a funded or evaluation account, you already know the rule that matters most isn't your strategy's win rate — it's the daily loss limit. Prop firms don't care how good your edge is over 100 trades; they care whether today, specifically, stayed inside the line. One string of bad entries, one moment of revenge-trading after a stop, one session where you keep clicking after you should have walked away — and the account that survived every other rule is gone over a single day.
psycho 3.1 builds that discipline into the EA itself with a Daily Max Loss input, set in your account currency. It works as an account-wide kill switch: the EA tracks your floating and closed P/L for the day, and the instant that number reaches the limit you defined, trading halts completely — no new positions, on any symbol, until the next trading day. It doesn't matter if you're tired, tilted, or convinced the next trade is "the one." The rule holds even when you wouldn't.
Because it's a hard number you set once in the inputs — not a mental limit you're trusting yourself to respect mid-session — it removes the exact failure point most funded traders lose their accounts to: not a bad strategy, but one undisciplined day that a machine would never have allowed.
The daily reset itself is also yours to control: a dedicated input lets you set the exact GMT offset the trading day resets on, so "today" lines up with your broker's server time or your prop firm's own daily reset rule instead of an assumption baked into the EA.
Everything below runs from the memo-SL line you drag on the chart — no separate risk calculator, no manual lot math.
Set your risk level on the chart before you're in the trade — it's a plan, not yet a live stop.
Lot size is derived from your fixed risk amount and the distance to your memo line, every time.
Buy or sell is only enabled once your line sits on the correct side of price — no accidental entries.
Take-profit is placed automatically at a 3x multiple of your risk distance by default — adjust the ratio freely from the EA's inputs.
Once a trade reaches 68% of its distance to TP, a real broker stop moves to entry automatically — the trigger percentage is yours to set in the inputs.
Two independent circuit breakers halt trading once floating or cumulative daily loss hits your limit.
Price, pending SL distance, allowed side, computed lots, and per-position status — always visible.
Each open trade keeps its own memo line, so you can plan a new entry while others stay open.
State is saved locally and missed candles are replayed on reconnect — nothing is lost mid-session.
A countdown to the next candle close, timed to your chart's timeframe, so entries fire in the closing seconds — not after the gap.
Prefer defining your take-profit first? Drag the line to set TP directly, and SL, lot size and risk are calculated backward from it.
Works across every symbol your broker offers — forex pairs, indices, commodities, metals and crypto — not locked to a single instrument.
Most tools tell you what you lost. This one decides what you're willing to lose, while the line is still just a suggestion on the chart.
Drag your memo SL — or your TP line, depending on which version you're running — to where your analysis says risk should end. Nothing is live until you press buy or sell — so you can rethink the line as many times as you want, risk-free.
You don't have to babysit the trade to protect it. Once price covers 68% of the way to target — a trigger percentage you can freely adjust in the EA's inputs — the real stop moves to entry on its own.
Max total loss halts everything if floating losses go too far. Max daily loss tracks closed and open trades against a rolling 8 AM reset — the same discipline prop firms enforce on you.
Place your memo SL where your analysis says risk should end.
Lot size, risk, and allowed side update live as you move it.
Buy or sell fires instantly at the size the panel already showed you.
TP, break-even, and your loss limits run without further input.
A protection system is only useful if it lives where your funded account does. psycho 3.1 is available on MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and cTrader — the three platforms behind the large majority of prop-firm challenges and funded accounts today — so you're not forced to switch broker or platform just to trade with it.

No — it's a planning tool. A real broker stop is only ever set for the automatic break-even move once a trade is open.
State is saved locally and missed candles are replayed on reconnect, so open positions and their memo lines pick up exactly where they left off.
Yes — each open position keeps its own independent memo-SL line, separate from the one you're currently setting up.
No, both the max daily loss and max total loss figures shown here are examples — you set your own limits.
Yes — the Daily Max Loss kill switch and hard break-even stop were built specifically for funded and evaluation accounts, where a single undisciplined day can breach the firm's rules.
The memo-SL version has you define your stop loss first, with lot size, take-profit and risk calculated from it. The TP-driven version flips that: you set your take-profit, and SL, lot size and risk are calculated backward from it. Both run the same execution and protection logic underneath — pick whichever matches how you plan a trade.
Yes — it automatically syncs to whichever timeframe your chart is set to, from M1 up through the higher timeframes, with no separate configuration needed.
No — both are default values. The break-even trigger percentage and the reward-to-risk ratio for take-profit are set as inputs, so you can tune either to match your own strategy.
Any symbol your broker offers on the chart it's attached to — forex pairs, indices, commodities, metals and crypto. It isn't locked to a single instrument.
No for protection, yes for entries. The break-even stop is a real broker-side order, so it holds even if you're away. Entries, however, still need your click — the panel and countdown just make sure that click, when you make it, is at the right price and the right moment.
The core logic is built for MT4, MT5 and cTrader. If your platform isn't one of these, reach out and we'll scope a version for it.
