Note:
Limit order/Market Order/Ordinary condition order preset stop-loss and take-profit. As long as there is a transaction record, the system will create a stop-loss and take-profit for the order, and the order quantity will be updated with the transaction quantity in the "Current Order-Take-Profit Stop-Loss" list. The order can be cancelled at any time before the take-profit and stop-loss take effect.
2.3 Position Setting Take Profit and Stop Loss
Definition: Take Profit and Stop Loss on position is a quick function to set take profit and stop loss for a specified position. Currently, take profit and stop loss can be set for all position (100%) for this position. The take profit and stop loss set here can be viewed or revoked in the "Current Order - Take Profit and Stop Loss" list.

Note:
The quantity of all position take-profit and stop-loss orders will be based on the quantity of the entire position. When the position quantity changes (adding or reducing positions), the number of take-profit and stop-loss orders will change accordingly.
At the same time, in this mode, the take profit and stop loss default to Market Order. When the price reaches the trigger price, it will be squared at the market position. Only one take profit and stop loss can be set in this mode. If both take profit and stop loss are set, when one side is triggered, the other side will be automatically cancelled.
2.4 How to use stop-loss and take-profit (case study)
Let’s take long BTC/USDT as an example:
Take Profit Settings :
-
Trigger price: 52,000 USDT
-
Order Price: 51,900 USDT (or market price)
Stop loss settings :
-
Trigger price: 48,000 USDT
-
Order Price: 47,900 USDT (or market price)
In this example:
-
If the BTC price rises to 52,000 USDT, the take profit order will be triggered and the system will close your long position at 51,900 USDT (or the current market price).
-
If the price of BTC falls to 48,000 USDT, a stop-loss order will be triggered and the system will close your long position at 47,900 USDT (or the current market price).

3.2 Summary of the activation and triggering rules for trailing stop loss and take profit
Active:
- If the activation price = the latest transaction price when placing an order, the order will be activated immediately when the order is placed.
- If the activation price > the latest transaction price when placing an order, the order will be activated when the new latest transaction price ≥ the activation price.
- If the activation price < the latest transaction price when placing an order, the order will be activated when the new latest transaction price ≤ the activation price.
·Tigger:
Buy: latest price ≥ trigger price
Sell: latest price ≤ trigger price
The trigger price calculation is:
Buy: lowest price + callback price distance; lowest price × (1 + callback range)
Sell: highest price - callback price distance; highest price × (1- callback range)
3.3 Trailing Stop Loss and Take Profit Example (Closing Order)
Assumption: You hold a long position in BTC/USDT, with the current price at 50,000 USDT.
Trailing Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Settings:
Operational Process:
-
The BTC price rises to 51,000 USDT, activating the trailing stop-loss and take-profit.
-
The price continues to rise to 52,000 USDT, automatically adjusting the trigger price to 50,960 USDT (52,000 * (1 - 2%)).
-
The price further increases to 53,000 USDT, and the trigger price adjusts again to 51,940 USDT.
-
If the price retraces to 51,940 USDT, the closing order will be triggered, locking in a significant profit.
This mechanism allows profits to increase as the price rises while providing downside protection.
3.4 Notes
·Before the trailing SL/TP is successfully triggered, the position and margin will not be frozen, so please be careful to avoid the limit order or ordinary stop occupying the margin or position.
·The trailing SL/TP may fail to place an order due to the following reasons:
- Position limit
- The contract is in a non-trading state
- System problem
·The successfully triggered market order is the same as the ordinary market order, which may not be executed. The unexecuted market order will be displayed in the current order. If the order is executed, your existing position will be closed. If the order fails, your position will still be retained.
·It is important to set a reasonable callback ratio. Too small may lead to premature closing of the position, and too large may not effectively protect the profit
·Mobile stop is not suitable for volatile markets and may lead to unexpected closing of positions
3.5 Application Scenario
·Trend tracking: In a strong trend, moving the stop-loss and take-profit can keep profits growing while protecting the gains already made.
·Risk management: In a volatile market, you can manage risks more flexibly and avoid premature closing of positions due to short-term pullbacks.
·Long-term holding: For long-term investors, moving the stop-loss and take-profit can gradually lock in profits while maintaining positions.
