Creating an bracket order with trailing stop

API Developers
1

Hi, I will admit I am totally new to the Tradovate API so I might ask the obvious but looking at the docs I am slightly lost

What Ilike to do is having my bot on a signal do the following

  • buy market with a SL of 10 points
  • add initially a trailing stop of 10 points but after a (potential) profit of 15 points I like to reduce the trailing stop to 5 points

In the docs I see the option for the trailing stop loss but in the example it is set to false so I have no idea of the parameters and how to work with it

It is because they do not use a standard stop loss.

It uses a trigger on a certain amount of profit before it activates.

ok, I will give it some tries. If I run into anything can I hit you up? I noticed you are one of the few active here and helpfull
