Convert Fixed Stop to Trailing Stop

It would be incredibly useful to have the option to convert a fixed stop into a trailing stop with offset once auto break-even is triggered, as well.

This times a million. This is the one feature that is keeping me from opening an account vs other options I’m evaluating.

This needs to be a high priority addition and I hope Tradovate is looking at this request. Much needed!

This is really needed!! I’m in the Top Step Combine and would consider keeping Tradovate if they can add this feature…

I agree! Gets my upvote.

Starting a trade with a trail vs a hard stop can work against a trader.
After it goes green creating a customized trail is a great option.

Can we get an official response on this?

Yep I like this request cause is realistic in terms of development, would be a simple checkbox on the UI and mostly a backend change

The oversimplified concept is just a conditional so on breakeven-trigger instead of cancel-replacing the original stop with another regular stop it does it with a trailing stop.

Hopefully is they can implement this, The other requests similar to this are way more complex to implement as the they want something like Ninja Trader that has multiple profit targets, same as other brokers. I only learned about this a while ago, no wonder why sometimes my friends kick as while I stumble trying to move my stop only for it to be rejected cause the price already came down, when my friends managed to sell at the top of the spike.

This is extatically what I am looking for too, and not the only one, but most of us really want this feature. Can an Admin please respond to this request???
We would feel very valued if you do respond :slight_smile:

usually tickets get a quick response from admin, or an evaluating tag, they have ignored this and other similar request for a long time, maybe is too difficult to add, as is unlike them to just be silent on requests.

Yes, please add this feature, @Tradovate, ASAP.

Any update on this @BWeis ?

Stuck with ninja trader because of this, as unfriendly as it is for some stuff, it does have the 5 most voted requests in here, I really want to come back to tradovate, just waiting for those to be completed, I’ll swing by next month again

THIS feature… please. This has been requested for two years it appears.

I’m currently evaluating Ninja Trader because it has sophisticated, custom stop strategies. This stop feature is relatively simple. Not having some more stop strategy options is hurting.

I was searching for how to do this because I was certain I was missing something. Is this still not an option? Has this ever been addressed by @tradovate?

YES!!! I too would love this feature. I would really like to see a triggered auto breakeven turn into a trail stop
