# 9. Take-Profit & Trailing Explained

**Lock in Profits Automatically — and Ride the Trend Like a Pro**

The mrD-Indicators Auto-Trading Bot doesn’t just help you enter the market smartly — it helps you **exit even smarter**.\
With its advanced **Take-Profit** and **Trailing Take-Profit** systems, you can capture gains step-by-step while still letting your winners run.

***

#### 🎯 Take-Profit: Multi-Target Exit Strategy

You can set up to **6 Take-Profit (TP) levels**, each selling a percentage of your position as the price rises.

**🛠 Example Setup:**

* TP1: 30%
* TP2: 30%
* TP3: 20%
* TP4: 10%
* TP5: 5%
* TP6: 5%

As each TP is hit, the bot automatically sells the configured volume.\
✅ No manual actions. No panic selling. Just steady profit-taking.

***

#### 📈 Trailing Take-Profit (TTP): Ride the Trend, Maximize Gains

Now here’s where it gets exciting.

Instead of selling instantly at a Take-Profit level, you can **activate trailing** from any TP level onward.\
Once your selected TP is reached, the bot will follow price action upward and lock in gains when the market turns — like a smart dynamic exit.

***

**🔄 How TTP Works:**

Let’s say you configure:

* Activate TTP at **TP2**
* Trail with **20%** of your position

When TP2 is reached:\
→ The bot starts trailing with 20%\
→ When TP3 hits: another 20% trails higher\
→ TP4: another 20%\
→ And so on… until TP6

This gives you a **powerful combo of partial exits + maximum trend capture**.

***

#### ⚙️ How to Set It Up (In the Bot)

**Path:**\
Main Menu ➝ `Take Profit` ➝ `TP` ➝ `% Volume`

**Step-by-Step:**

1. Choose the TP level where trailing begins (e.g., TP2, TP3...)
2. Select what % of your position to trail (e.g., 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%)
3. The bot will execute trailing sell orders each time a higher TP is reached

✅ Example:

* Choose TP2 and 20%
* When TP2 is hit, the bot will **not** sell instantly
* Instead, it will trail the market and secure profit when price reverses

***

#### 🔁 Visual Flow Summary

1. TP2 hits → 20% begins trailing
2. TP3 hits → next 20% trails higher
3. TP4 hits → another 20% trails\
   … and so on

📊 Final Result:\
**More profit locked, less stress, and no need to guess tops.**

***

#### 💡 Why This Matters

You don’t just want to "take profit" — you want to take it **strategically**.\
Whether the market spikes, trends, or reverses — the bot adjusts in real time to help you **secure more gains with less emotion**.

***

#### ✅ Summary

* Set up to **6 TP levels** to scale out
* Activate **Trailing Take-Profit** at any level
* Choose the **exact % to trail**
* Let the bot **maximize profit automatically**
