One-Time Stop-Loss and Take-Profit Placement for Open Positions

Summary

This description explains a single-use trading robot that sets stop-loss and take-profit levels for positions on the current symbol. The user can choose which side of the market to target—buy, sell, or both—and specify the stop and target values. Once it successfully applies the settings, the robot stops running.

It can force a change to an existing stop-loss or take-profit when position modification is allowed. For example, a configured stop value can replace the current stop on an eligible buy position. The document describes functionality rather than a trading strategy, and provides no performance evidence, sizing guidance, or discussion of how to choose appropriate levels. Its scope is limited to the current symbol and the one-time placement task.

Key ideas

• The robot applies stop-loss and take-profit settings to positions for the current symbol.
• Users can select buy positions, sell positions, or both.
• After successfully placing the settings, it terminates rather than managing them continuously.
• When modification is permitted, configured values can overwrite existing position levels.
