Trailing Take Profit

17. Apr. 2021

This script demonstrates how to do trailing take profit. With this approach instead of setting a limit order, when you hit the target you just follow the price upwards (for long positions) and you sell when the price drops by a small percentage. This approach will increase the profits (slightly) in every strategy! Be aware that the simulated data may produce unrealistic results.
