One of the strongest tools that many people do not use correctly... even though it can completely change your trading approach.
🔹 What is a Trailing Stop?
It is a smart order that moves automatically with the price movement.
Instead of keeping the loss fixed... it moves with the market automatically and secures you bigger profits.
A simple example:
Did the price rise?
→ The order rises with it and secures you a higher profit.
The price has gone down again?
→ Executes automatically and protects you from loss.
It's Stop Loss… but on steroids. ⚡🔥

🟢 First: Trailing Stop Sell
(When you have opened a Long buy position)
You use it when you want:
Protects your profits
And you keep the trade open to continue if the market is soaring
How does it work?
You set a trailing percentage, for example, 5%.
The price goes up 10%?
→ The stop loss (Stop) also goes up.
As soon as the price drops 5% from the highest point it reached…
→ Executes automatically.
Ideal for the trader who wants to let the trade run without worry.

🔵 Second: Trailing Stop Buy
(We use it when we expect a bullish breakout)
Its concept is the opposite of Trailing Sell:
Let it monitor the drop…
And as soon as a strong bullish reversal occurs, it enters a buy automatically.
Very useful when:
The market is going down
But you have a feeling that a big reversal is coming
And you want to enter at the right moment without minute-by-minute monitoring

Long Trailing Stop:
Same idea as Spot… but its importance is greater because you are on leverage.
Protects positions from “liquidation” if the price suddenly reverses.
Short Trailing Stop:
Short selling
And the market is going down
And the order moves with you downwards
And as soon as a strong bullish rebound occurs… it closes the position.
