Placing Trailing Stops
It is always recommended to use testnet/sandbox first!
See table below for an overview of which options are supported per Exchange.
If in an Exchange is not listed below, ProfitView currently does not support trailing stop orders for it or their API does not cover that order type.
Note: Currently NO exchange supports setting trailing stops as attributes with an opening order - the trailing stop always has to be submitted separately!
Note: For exchanges/markets that do not support an activation or trigger price, trailing will start immediately from the moment the order is placed!
