Invest Responsibly
Understanding the risks involved
Your personal account is the hub for managing your account funding and a valuable risk management tool.
By keeping your money safe in your account, you limit your risk. You can invest as much as you are willing to risk while keeping the rest of your funds in your account.
Stop Loss (SL) serves as an order that acts as a safeguard against excessive losses and aids in managing trade risks. It is essentially a predefined price level represented by a straight line. If the market price moves against your position and touches the Stop Loss level, the order will be executed, automatically closing the position.
Take Profit, on the other hand, is an order designed to automatically secure your trading profits when the price reaches a predetermined level.
To set these orders, consider the following guidelines: When initiating a long position, set the Take Profit above the current market price. Conversely, for a sell position, position the Take Profit below the current price. Typically, the Take Profit level is established at a distance twice as far from the opening price as the Stop Loss.
It's crucial to note that while Stop Loss and Take Profit orders are valuable risk management tools, they don't guarantee execution at the specified price. In cases of rapid and intense market movements, the price may surpass the set levels. However, you always have the option to manually close a trade by clicking the Close button.
Once a position is closed, the resulting net profit or loss will be promptly reflected in your trading account balance.
Important!
Stop Loss/Take Profit does not guarantee that your position will be closed at the specified price. In case of sharp and intensive market movements, the price may slip past the level you set:
Please note that you can close the trade at any time by clicking the Close button or wait for your SL or Tp to be triggered.
How to set:
When opening a long position, the take profit should be higher than the current price. When opening a sell position, the take profit should be below the current price. As a rule, it is set 2 times further from the opening price level than Stop Loss.
As soon as the position is closed, your net profit or loss will be immediately reflected in the trading account balance.
