How Trailing Stop Works?

1 min. readlast update: 06.27.2024

The Trailing Stop works as a traditional Stop Loss order.

  1. If you have ticked the Copy Master's SL The Slave will copy and host the Trailing Stop at the creation. The Trailing Stop will be updated on the Slave account accordingly to the Master's Trailing Stop update, this update will be done as long as you keep your Master's trading platform open, once you close your trading platform, the automatic update will stop and only once the Trailing Stop is triggered on the Master the position will be close on the Slave account.
  2. If you have NOT ticked the Copy Master's SL The Trailing Stop (or Stop Loss) is not copied and hosted at the creation on the Slave account. Only once the Trailing Stop is triggered on the Master account a Market order will be sent to the Slave account. If you want to avoid all Trailing Stop update on the Slave you could untick this option.
