Prop Guardian protects account drawdowns on MT4 with strict automated risk control

This Prop Guardian review for 2025 presents a performance analysis based on combined live account traces, verified logs, and developer-supplied settings. The review focuses on how Prop Guardian enforces aggregate drawdown limits, how quickly it halts trading when thresholds are met, and whether the tool materially changes risk outcomes for FTMO-style evaluations and funded account compliance. Mohammad Rahchemandi designed the utility to act as a strict risk desk manager rather than as an entry signal generator, which is why the review emphasizes enforcement and behavioral controls. What makes Prop Guardian unique is its dual approach: deterministic account-level rules plus a Psycho-Manager that encourages disciplined behavior after an enforced stop. The algorithm continuously monitors equity and floating P&L, compares them to configurable per-account and per-period thresholds, and then either blocks new orders or executes mass closures depending on configured risk tolerance. Prop Guardian does not attempt to read price action; instead it assumes position management and entry signals come from other EAs or traders. The tool performs best in trending and moderately volatile markets where entry systems have predictable edges and occasional large losing streaks need hard stops. Risk management centers on fixed risk-per-trade caps and aggregate daily or trade-session limits, with flexible parameters to suit FTMO, MFF, and The5ers rules. Expected performance characteristics include fewer impulsive restarts after breaches, lower peak drawdowns by percentage, and improved pass rate for prop-firm challenges when rules are followed.
