Beyond Traditional Take Profit and Stop Loss

While Take Profit (TP) and Stop Loss (SL) are fundamental tools for setting predefined exit points for maximum loss or desired profit, our Trading Panel extends these capabilities. Traders can now program additional actions to be executed under specific conditions, enhancing the strategic management of orders.

 

Customizable Actions for Dynamic Market Response

The Actions and Exit Methods feature empowers traders to dictate the behavior of their orders in response to varying market conditions. This customization is key in preparing for and addressing the plethora of scenarios that markets can present.

 

Configurable Actions

  • Preconditions for Action: Traders can set actions to trigger once specific conditions are met, ensuring that the order adapts to changes in market dynamics.

  • Multiple Action Stacking: Configure several actions simultaneously, each poised to execute when its corresponding condition is met.

 

By incorporating these programmable actions into the Trading Panel, traders are equipped with a comprehensive toolkit to navigate through the markets with greater precision and adaptability.
