What Trailing Take Profit
Trailing Take Profit (TTP) is an automated exit strategy that helps you capture upside while protecting profits.
Instead of selling immediately at a fixed take-profit level, Sabitrade:
Lets price continue to move up
Automatically follows the price upward
Exits only when price pulls back by a defined percentage
This allows you to:
Avoid selling too early
Let strong momentum play out
Still lock in profits when momentum fades
Why Trailing Take Profit Exists
Most traders face a common problem:
Fixed TP → you sell too early
No TP → you give back profits
Manual selling → emotional and slow
Trailing Take Profit removes emotion and hesitation from exits.
How Trailing Take Profit Works on Sabitrade
Trailing Take Profit has two stages:
1️⃣ Activation Stage
Trailing TP only becomes active after price reaches your initial profit target.
Until then:
No trailing logic is applied
Your position behaves normally
2️⃣ Trailing Stage
Once activated:
Sabitrade continuously tracks the highest price reached
A trailing sell price is calculated using your drawdown percentage
If price falls back to that trailing price, the position is closed automatically
Example: Trailing Take Profit in Action

Why Trailing Take Profit Is Powerful
✅ Lets Winners Run
You stay in strong trends longer.
✅ Protects Gains Automatically
Once activated, profits are defended.
✅ Removes Emotional Selling
No second-guessing. No panic exits.
✅ Works While You’re Away
Your strategy continues even when you’re offline.
Choosing the Right Drawdown Percentage
Your drawdown controls how sensitive the trailing exit is.

⚠️ Important:
Drawdown should not be set too high.
A 50% drawdown after a 100% move brings price back to entry — not a good exit.

Trailing TP is an exit tool, not an alpha generator.
