• A Library of Automated Exits include:
  • trailing stops - customisable auto-trailing of stop loss

  • reverse at stop and/or target
  • scale-outs - multiple profit targets
  • indicator based exits etc
• Develop personalised Automated Exits

We like the flexibility that this system offers especially when it comes to placing orders and working contingents when filled. Features such as this will really appeal to day and short term traders.
