Fortress Compliance Monitor (FCM) is a real-time compliance tracking tool designed for prop-firm traders using the cTrader platform. It monitors up to 12 customizable trading rules commonly enforced by prop firms, including daily loss limits, overall drawdown (static or trailing), consistency, news blackout periods, inactivity, maximum open positions, minimum hold time, weekend holding, minimum trading days, evaluation time limits, maximum risk per trade, and consecutive losing days.

FCM provides early warning alerts as you approach preset limits and notifies you clearly when limits are breached via popup, sound, and email notifications. An optional Account Protection feature can automatically close positions or cancel pending orders at user-defined thresholds to help prevent further losses. Breaches remain flagged until reset and persist through platform restarts.

The tool features an on-chart panel displaying compliance status (COMPLIANT, WARNING, or DO NOT TRADE) with current values and limits for each rule. The panel layout is adjustable and movable for user convenience. Presets are available for popular prop firms such as FTMO, FundedNext, The5ers, FundingPips, and Maven Trading, with support for custom configurations. Limits can be set in percentages or dollar amounts, calculated on balance, equity, or the lower of both. FCM supports manual and automated trading on any symbol and timeframe.

To use, attach FCM to a chart, select or customize firm rules, set early warning levels, and enable Account Protection if desired. FCM does not open trades and is independent of any prop firm.
