Sometimes winning in forex isn’t about “what” you trade, but when you trade. Ever opened a good position only to watch it stall for hours and then reverse? That’s exactly why the Time Limit EA 1.0.5 MT4 was built.

Created by the YoForex dev team, this bot automatically closes trades after a set period. That means no more stuck positions draining your equity and no more emotional decisions on when to exit. And yep, it’s free to download from MQL5.software.

Overview

Time Limit EA 1.0.5 is a MetaTrader 4 Expert Advisor designed for traders who want to automate their exit timing. It doesn’t predict the market — instead, it provides a structured rule: once a trade hits the preset time limit, it’s closed, no matter what.

This is incredibly useful for:

  • Scalpers who don’t want trades open longer than 15–30 minutes.
  • Day traders avoiding overnight swaps.
  • Prop-firm traders who must manage max exposure time.

• Perfect for scalping & day trading
• Stops swap fees by avoiding overnight trades

• Easy to install, lightweight, no lag
• Prop-firm friendly – keeps exposure limited
• Compatible with VPS for 24/7 use
