Dashboard & GUI

Banana EA displays an on-chart dashboard panel that gives you a real-time view of account state, session status, strategy settings, and open trades — without opening the inputs dialog.

Main dashboard panel

The main panel appears in the top-left corner of the chart by default. Corner and offset are configurable via Panel Corner Position, Panel Horizontal Offset, and Panel Vertical Offset.

Trade info panels

Each open trade has its own draggable trade box showing:

  • Ticket number, symbol, direction (BUY / SELL)
  • Entry price, current SL, TP
  • Floating P&L in pips and currency
  • Current partial-close level status (e.g. PC: 25%@3x 25%@10x 25%@15x)
  • Close button (closes the full position)
  • TC button (candle trailing stop)
  • ST button (swing trailing stop)
  • BE button (manual break-even)

Trade boxes are draggable by their caption bar. Enable/disable via Enable Draggable Trade Panels.


Smart Risk Monitor

The Smart Risk Monitor (opened by the S button) shows a separate draggable window with advanced risk metrics:

  • Daily drawdown used vs limit
  • Weekly drawdown used vs limit
  • Trailing HWM distance
  • Consecutive loss count
  • Session profit vs lock threshold
  • Challenge mode progress bar

It uses the same 260px width as the main dashboard to fit neatly alongside it.


Account History Report

A separate draggable window (optional) showing closed-trade performance statistics for the current terminal session.


Themes

The Theme button on the dashboard cycles through available colour schemes. See Themes for details.
