A Trailing stop sell order sets the stop price at a fixed amount below the market price with an attached “trailing” amount. As the market price rises, the stop price rises by the trail amount, but if the stock price falls, the stop price doesn’t change, and a market order is submitted when the stop price is hit. This technique is designed to allow an investor to specify a limit on the maximum possible loss, without setting a limit on the maximum possible gain.

Cryptocurrency trading has grown in popularity nowadays and traders are looking to optimize profits and minimize losses through trailing sell orders and trailing limit orders. There are several orders traders can use to protect their investment and optimize profits.

What is a trailing stop sell order?

A trailing stop sell order is a trading order whereby the trader will set a fixed stop price for the order below the current market price as per the trailing amount. Interestingly the stop price increases concurrently with an increase in market price but it is always rising with the initial interval set by the percentage of the trailing amount.

Once the stop price is attained the order will then be triggered and the same can also be done in reverse for a buy trailing stop sell order. With this kind of trading strategy investors and traders can minimize their maximum possible losses with endless possible gains.
