1️⃣4️⃣ Automate your sales and protect your profits with the Trailing Stop Order

📅 Publication: 03/08/2025

🎯 Goal: SELL AT THE BEST MOMENT AND MAXIMIZE YOUR GAINS AUTOMATICALLY

In this guide, you will learn how to use the Trailing Stop Order on Binance, which allows your sell order to follow the market uptrend and automatically sell at the best possible price.

Different from the OCO Order, which has fixed prices for profit and stop-loss execution, the Trailing Stop Order automatically adjusts as the asset price rises, ensuring you maximize your gains without needing to monitor the market all the time.

🔹 What is a Trailing Stop Order?

The Trailing Stop Order allows you to set a percentage or fixed margin below the current market price. If the price rises, the stop level follows the uptrend. If the price falls and reaches this adjusted level, the sale occurs automatically.

📌 Practical Example:

  • Current BTC price: $100,000

  • Trailing Stop Margin: $2,000 / 2%

  • If the price rises to $105,000, the stop level adjusts to $103,000.

  • If the price continues to rise to $110,000, the stop level rises to $108,000.

  • If the price falls to $108,000, the sell order is triggered automatically.

💡 This way, you capture profits without needing to adjust the order manually!

🔹 How to Set Up a Trailing Stop Order on Binance?

Step by Step:

1️⃣ Access your Binance account: Log in and go to the [Trade] - [Spot] section.

2️⃣ Choose the trading pair: Select the cryptocurrency you want to trade.

3️⃣ Select the order type: In the dropdown menu, choose Trailing Stop.

4️⃣ Set the parameters:

🔹T/D %: This field refers to the Discount Rate. Percentage margin for the trailing stop (example: 2% below the highest price reached).

  • The Discount Rate is the percentage that determines how much the price can move against the trend before the trailing stop order is triggered.

  • For example, if you set a Discount Rate of 2%, the stop will follow the price as it rises, but if the price drops by 2% from its highest peak, the sell order will be executed.

🔹Quantity: Enter the amount of cryptocurrency you wish to sell.

🔹Activation Price: This field corresponds to the 'Activation Price' in English.

  • It is the specific price that, when reached, activates the trailing stop order.

  • Initial price to activate the trailing stop.

  • If the market price does not reach the Activation Price, the order will not be triggered.

5️⃣ Confirm the order: Review the details and click Sell to activate the trailing stop.

⚠️ Attention: Make sure to correctly configure the TD Discount Rate, as a very small value may trigger early selling, and a very large value may result in a loss of gains.

🔹 Benefits of the Trailing Stop Order

✔️ Sell at the best moment: You do not need to set a fixed exit price, as the order adjusts automatically.

✔️ Protects your profits: If the price falls after a rise, the sale occurs before greater losses.

✔️ Reduced monitoring: You do not need to keep watching the chart all the time.

✔️ Ideal for volatile markets: Takes advantage of upward movements and minimizes risks of sudden drops.
