Is there a way I can turn off the EA function and just use the calculator? My prop firm which is equity edge don’t allow ea but the position sizer is not really a ea I only use it to calculate my risk very quick

Disable the Live trading in MT4, Algo Trading in MT5 in Common tab, while you loading the EA,
Autotrading should be disabled MetaTrader 4, Algo trading in MT5

MetaTrader 4 - Allowing Autotrading for Expert Advisors


MetaTrader 5:


MetaTrader 5 - Allowing Algo Trading for Expert Advisors


Simple to understand from the scrnshot just reverse it not to work with the EA

If your prop firm doesn't allow attaching EAs to charts at all - even Position Sizer - you can use the indicator version of it:
https://github.com/EarnForex/PositionSizer/releases/tag/2.42
Unfortunately, it is very old and might not be very accurate.

I recommend talking to your prop firm about allowing Position Sizer.
 
Two days ago, something started happening: when the indicator is active, MT5 lags completely. This has never happened before, but when I turn it off, it goes back to normal. I also have it in MT4 and it doesn't have this problem.

Please read at least last few posts in the thread before reporting the same issue that has already been reported several times (and got answers).
 
But every time I load the position sizer I have to change it back or load the profile.

Anyway I right clicked on position sizer > modify > ctlr +f to open find window , search "Courier" and replaced with "Arial" hit save and then build menu > compile

it may happen if you have set the profile folder read only mode. Just create a new profile and save it in different name.. while you load the EA, change the Font. That's it.
