Every bot needs well-configured take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) settings to manage risk and lock in gains.
Take Profit
fomoed offers two take profit modes:
Scale-Out (Multiple TPs)
Close your position in stages as the price moves in your favor:
- TP1 — Close a portion at the first target (e.g., 50% at +1.5%).
- TP2 — Close more at the second target (e.g., 30% at +3%).
- TP3 — Close the remainder at the final target (e.g., 20% at +5%).
Scale-out is recommended because it locks in partial profits early while letting the rest ride for larger gains.
Fixed TP
Close the entire position at a single percentage target. Simpler but less flexible.
Stop Loss
Protect your capital with these stop loss options:
Basic Stop Loss
Set a fixed percentage below your entry price. If the price hits this level, the position is closed to limit losses.
Advanced Options
- Move SL after TP1 — After the first take profit is hit, move the stop loss to a better level to protect remaining profits.
- Breakeven Stop — After TP1, move the stop loss to your entry price so the remaining position is risk-free.
- Trailing Stop — The stop loss follows the price upward by a fixed percentage. If the price reverses, the trailing stop triggers and locks in gains.
Recommended setup: Use Scale-Out TPs (50%/30%/20%) with a Breakeven Stop after TP1. This locks in early profits and makes the remaining position risk-free.
