# Stop losses

## Disabled stop loss (default)

By default no loss cutting strategy is active. Robots are waiting to sell in profit.

## Cut losses according to a percentage (🚨 losing sell)

The robot will automatically sell if the value of the tokens drops according to the desired percentage "***stop loss***". \
\
**Example for a 10% setting**: a robot buy 1 BTC at $50,000, the price of the BTC drops by 10%, the robot will sell the BTC at 45000$.<br>

## Keeping your initial trade amount

When the price of a purchased token increases by a certain percentage, the robot will place a stop limit order to prevent money loss.

{% hint style="info" %}
**selling price = buying price +  platform's transaction fees**
{% endhint %}

**Example for a 10% setting**: a robot buy 1 BTC at $50,000, the price of the BTC increases to $55,000, the robot places a stop limit order at $50,075.

## Secure your benefits

When the price of a purchased crypto currency increases **by twice your percentage** "***minimum benefits to secure***", relative to your purchase price, the bot will place a **stop limit** order at the purchase price plus your chosen percentage.

{% hint style="info" %}
**stop limit price = purchase price + platform's transaction fee + percentage**
{% endhint %}

As long as the market rises, it will watch the price of the crypto-currency, and when it rises again **by double your percentage** "***minimum benefits to secure***", compared to the **previous stop limit**, the robot will place a **stop limit** order at the price of the previous stop limit plus your chosen percentage. \
\&#xNAN;*It will repeat the operation as long as it has not sold.*

{% hint style="info" %}
**stop limit price = previous stop limit price + percentage**
{% endhint %}

**Example for a 10% setting:** \
The robot buys 1 BTC at $50,000, the price of BTC increases to $60,000, the robot sets a stop limit order at $55042. \
The price increases again to $66050, the robot sets a stop limit order at $60546.
