Dear Trader,

Thanks for posting in the forum. You can find a sample of how to program a trailing stop loss here. It might be helpful in your effort to incorporate trailing stop loss logic inside your cBot.

Best Regards,

cTrader Team

 

Thanks, I have been trying all afternoon but I keep getting errors.
