# Trailing Stop + Trigger



#### **Trailing Stop Guide**

A **Trailing Stop (TS)** helps protect your profits by allowing a trade to remain open as long as the price increases while automatically selling if the price drops by a set percentage from its highest point.

**Types of Trailing Stops**

✅ **Trailing Stop** – Moves with the highest price reached and sells when the price drops by a specified percentage from its peak.\
✅ **Trailing Stop with Trigger** – Activates only after the price has increased by a set percentage from your entry price. Once activated, it follows the highest price and sells when the price drops by the trailing stop percentage.

#### **Setting Up a Trailing Stop for New Trades**

If you want to apply a **Trailing Stop** or **Trailing Stop with Trigger** automatically to all new trades:\
1️⃣ **Go to Settings:** Type `/settings` and open **TP/SL/TS Config**.\
2️⃣ **Enable Trailing Stop:** Tap 🔴 to turn it 🟢 (enabled for all new trades).\
3️⃣ **Set Your Trailing Stop Percentage:**

* Tap 🎯 and enter the percentage at which your trailing stop will activate.
* Example: If you set a **20% trailing stop**, the stop price will always be 20% lower than the highest price reached.\
  4️⃣ **For Trailing Stop with Trigger:**
* Set a **Trigger Target %** first (e.g., 100% profit).
* After reaching this target, the trailing stop starts tracking the highest price.
* Example: If you set a **100% trigger** and a **20% trailing stop**, the trailing stop only activates once the token price reaches 100% profit. From there, it sells if the price drops by 20% from the highest point.

These settings will now apply automatically to all **new** trades.
