How do I lock in my profit or set my loss limit?

You can set your profit target or loss limit (stop loss). Upon reaching these parameters, your trade will be closed automatically.

You can do it both at the moment of opening your trade and any time after you have opened it.

To set your profit target at the moment of opening your trade, do the following:

- In the Open Trade window, click the Loss and Profit Limits link.

- Set your loss limit and/or your profit target.

- Select a direction and click the respective button.

To set your profit target and/or loss limit after you have already opened your trade, do the following:

- Go to StormGain and select the trade in question from the "My Trades list" In the dialogue that shows up, specify the desired values and click Save.
