Trailing Buy/Sell Bot

Smart entries and exits that follow price action.

Overview

Don't catch falling knives. Don't sell too early. The Trailing Bot waits for confirmation before executing, maximizing your entry and exit points.

Trailing Buy

Target Price: $100
Callback: 2%

Price falls: $100 → $95 → $90 → $85 (tracking)
Price rises: $85 → $86.70 (+2% callback) → BUY!

Result: Bought at $86.70 instead of $100
Savings: 13.3%

Trailing Sell

Entry Price: $100
Callback: 3%

Price rises: $100 → $110 → $120 → $130 (tracking)
Price drops: $130 → $126.10 (-3% callback) → SELL!

Result: Sold at $126.10 instead of $100
Profit: 26.1%

Trailing Modes

1. Simple Trailing

Basic callback from lowest/highest point.

Hour 6: 3% callback
Hour 24: 1% callback

3. Volume-Adjusted

Tighter callback on high volume (confirmation).

4. Multi-Leg Trailing

Chain buy → trailing stop → trailing take profit.

Combo Strategies

1. Trailing Buy on -10% dip
2. Auto-set trailing stop at 5%
3. Let winners run

Breakout Trailing

1. Set trailing buy above resistance
2. Confirm breakout with callback
3. Avoid fake breakouts
