Click the “Auto Take Profit” button will goto another screen for setup auto take profit, this function will help to auto take profit base on your settings:
There are two important conditions you need to set before use this function:
1. You need to open and keep running the cTrader and this cBot
2. You need to set the take profit value when create this order
It’s support 3 take profit cases, and there are two input values in each case:
Take Profit x (1-3): How many profit should be take in this case. If you set the value with percentage (end with ‘%’) then will be base on percentage to calculate the take profit value, otherwise (no ‘%’ in the end) will take profit with this value directly (this is the volumes value)
when: The condition’s value for taking profit, if hit this condition’s value then will be process take profit
There are 3 conditions for set the auto take profit:
Percent of Total TP: It will take profit base on totale profit’s percentage. For example:
Take Profit 1 case:
1. Set the Take Profit 1
to 50%
2. Set the when
value to 60
Result: When the profit increases to 60% of the target profit, it will auto take 50% profit
Price: It will take profit base on the price. For example:
Take Profit 2 case:
1. Set the Take Profit 2
to 2000 (no percentage so that’s the volumes value)
2. Set the when
value to 1.12288
Result: When the price hit to 1.12288
then will auto take 2000
volumes profit
Pips: It will take profit base on the Pips value. For example:
Take Profit 3 case:
1. Set the Take Profit 3
to 100%
2. Set the when
value to 100
Result: This is the 3 times to take profit, so we want to take all of the remain profit, so set the take profit value to 100%, if the profit pips hit 100
, then will take all of the profit and close the order.
You also can set the break even in this case. For example:
1. Set the Break Even +
to 10
2. Set the when
value to 50
3. Check the Pips
checkbox
Result: If the profit increases to 50 pips, then set the stop loss value base on your entry price and plus more then 10 pips
Let’s take a look the screen, you will find there are three line when you run the cBot
As you can see the label in the line, you just need to drag the SL/TP line what you want, the cBot will auto calculate the other values.
When you update any of the values, the pencil icon will be enable, after modified the value, don’t forget click the pencil icon for confirm and update the values, after that, the cBot will auto calculate all of other values
That’s easy to use, right? 🙂
After you create an order with this cBot, it will auto set the label as below
and you will find it will be auto set the the auto take profit panel
You just need to make sure the label of order for take profit
value is same with the order’s label that you want to process, so you can set any of other order’s label for process auto take profit if there are multiple orders, after that, you can click Start Take Profit
button and that’s ok! :smiley:
