Managing a trade: changing the stop and the targets

An open trade can be edited right in the bot: move the stop, add or remove a target, change the price or the amount of an entry. The bot sends the change to the exchange and confirms the outcome with a separate notification.

Where it is in the bot

Main menu → 💼 Trades → the trade → Edit trade. From there, three lists by role: edit Entries, edit Take Profit, edit Stop Loss. Each of them holds the buttons Order #1, Order #2 … and Add Target.

What you can do

ActionWhereWhat happens
Change the price of an orderThe order → Change price“✏️ Enter the new price as a number:” → “Confirm price change for the order?”. The price is checked against the rule SL < ENTRY < TP (for SHORT — the other way round)
Change the amount of an entryAn entry order → Change amount“Choose a new Value for the trade”
Change the share of a targetA TP order → Change percentage“Enter the desired percentage (total TP order percentages must be <= 100)”. The bot shows “(Free percentages: 20)”
Cancel an orderThe order → Cancel order“Are you sure you want to cancel this order?”. The last order cannot be cancelled
Add an entryedit EntriesAdd Target“Enter the price for the new Entry order (no need to specify percentages), but follow the rule (or open at market price):”, then the amount. The Market order button opens an entry at the current price
Add a targetedit Take ProfitAdd TargetThe format <price> - <percentage>
Add a stopedit Stop LossAdd Target“Choose the price for the Stop-Loss order. Follow the rule:”
Move the stop to the marketThe card → Close Stop Loss at marketThe screen “Move Stop-Loss to market price”, the result “Stop-Loss successfully moved”
Change the leverageThe card → Change leverage“Enter a new leverage value” → “Confirm leverage change:” → “✅ Leverage successfully changed 10 -> 5”. Only while there is no open position on the pair

After a change the bot answers, for example: “Entry change: success. Request sent to exchange (30000 → 29800). Execution status will arrive as a separate notification.” The outcome comes from the notification bot: “✏️ Price changed” or “❌ Error changing price: …”.

How to pull the stop up by hand

  1. Open the trade → Edit tradeedit Stop LossOrder #1.
  2. Change price → enter the new price, for example 59500.
  3. Check the rule: for a LONG the stop must stay below the entry.
  4. Confirm and wait for “Stop Loss moved”.

If you want the stop to move on its own, set up Trailing Stop-Loss in the trading settings of the bot.

What is important to know

  • Cancelling a target redistributes its share: “When cancelling a Take-Profit order, the portion of the position covered by this order will be proportionally redistributed among remaining orders”.
  • Any edit resets the counter of the auto-closing of “forgotten” trades (14 days without changes).
  • An order that has already been filled cannot be changed: “Order already filled.”

Common errors and what the bot says

  • “Order price was not changed because the new price is the same as the current one (30000)”.
  • “For Long trades, Entry order price cannot be greater than or equal to Take-Profit order price” — and similar checks of the rule for every role.
  • “Invalid percentage. You can only choose a value up to the available free percentages.” / “Insufficient free percentages: 20”.
  • “Cannot cancel the last order”.
  • “Cannot change leverage: there is an open trade for this pair”.
  • “Order already filled.” — the order was filled, it is too late to change it.
  • “No active SL order” / “No open position” — the stop can only be moved to the market while the position is open.
  • “Trade is currently being modified by another operation. Please wait a few seconds and try again.”
