Expire Position At [Time]

Time-based expiry allows you to automatically cancel your Entry Order (and position) after a specified time period if no entries have filled. This feature can be useful in rapidly moving markets where you anticipate that your entry might not fill.

You can apply time-based expiry when creating an Entry Order, whether or not you include exit orders. It can also be added to existing orders, provided they have not yet been filled or partially filled. The feature is compatible with most Entry Order types, including Limit, Stop Order, Trailing Stop, and Ladder orders (but not Market orders, as they fill immediately). It works for both long and short positions.

Question 2

Smart Orders: Trailing Stop Loss: Average Entry and Follow Take Profit

Accepted Answer

The smart Trailing Stop Loss orders: Average Entry and Follow Take Profit are very similar. Both offer protection for the remainder of your position once the first Take Profit order has been reached.

Description

Once TP1 is filled, the Stop Loss moves to the Average Entry Price.
On some platforms this is called “move stop loss to breakeven”.
Both types are suitable when two or more Take Profit orders are included in the smart order. When there is only one TP order, the Stop Loss will never move to the Average entry price, and will stay at its initial price throughout the trade.

Comparison between TSL: Average Entry Price and TSL: Follow Take Profit

The following table shows how the Stop Loss moves as each TP is reached, for both the Average Entry Price and Follow Take Profit TSLs.

Question 5

Signal Bot Settings

Accepted Answer

Altrady's Signal Bot allows you to automate your trading using signals from CBS and other screened providers.

The bot will create your position, manage one or more Entry orders, Take Profit orders and Stop Loss, either using settings taken from the signal, or your choice of settings.

You can also generate your own Signals on Trading View and send those as a Webhook Signal to Altrady's Signal Bot.

| We recommend that a separate account or sub-account is used for your bot, so that the allocated funds are not accidentally used for a different purpose.

Each Signal Provider will use the generic settings for the bot, and might also have some that are customised for their signals.

This article covers the details for each bot setting and is used for all Signal Bots, including webhook signals.

The following instructions apply to most exchanges, with the exceptions of Bybit and Kraken.
