Dashboard Themes

Banana EA MT5 includes a built-in theme system that lets you switch the dashboard colour scheme without reloading the EA.

Switching themes

Click the Theme button on the main dashboard panel. The theme cycles to the next available scheme and all panels (main dashboard, trade boxes, Smart Risk Monitor, stats window) update simultaneously.

Available themes

ThemeDescription
Dark (default)Dark navy background with yellow/green accents — low eye strain for long sessions
LightWhite/light grey background for bright environments
BlueDeep blue with cyan highlights
GreenDark background with green-dominant accent colours

Additional themes may be added in future releases.

Theme persistence

The selected theme is saved via MT5 GlobalVariables and restored automatically when the EA reloads or the terminal restarts.

DPI scaling

The dashboard automatically adapts its layout for high-DPI (4K) monitors. The DPI scaling module detects your screen's pixel density and scales all panel dimensions, font sizes, and button sizes proportionally.

If the dashboard appears too small or too large, check your Windows display scaling setting (Settings → Display → Scale). At 100% scaling on a standard 1080p monitor the default dimensions are optimised.
