Automatic Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Levels Based on Purchase Cost

Summary

This brief description presents an automatic mechanism for setting stop-loss and take-profit levels, with confirmation before the settings are applied. It says the calculations use the purchase cost as their reference point. The current setup provides one stop-loss value and one take-profit value that are shared across all traded symbols.

The document does not explain how the values are calculated, how confirmation works, or how orders are handled after placement. It gives no example, performance evidence, or guidance on choosing levels, so it does not establish whether the mechanism suits any particular market or strategy. Symbol-specific stop-loss and take-profit parameters are described as a planned feature, not a current capability. The note is therefore a limited implementation overview rather than a complete risk-management method.

Key ideas

• The described tool automatically sets stop-loss and take-profit levels after confirmation.
• Its calculations use purchase cost as the reference point.
• One stop-loss value and one take-profit value currently apply across all symbols.
• Symbol-specific parameters are described as a planned enhancement.
• The document provides no calculation details, testing evidence, or guidance for selecting levels.
