Draggable TakeProfit & Stoploss

A very powerful feature while using Chart Trading in the Tealstreet Terminal is the ability to drag your TP & SL lines on the chart from your open positions.

Stub
  • Some users may find this to be much faster then manipulating the order panel
  • By default these stops and tp's are set to be market orders. See below for more info.
note

The behavior of this feature is not identical on every exchange, it is important to explore the nuances if you will be trading on multiple exchanges.

Partial TP/SL Draggables

  • You can activate the partial draggable functionality by enabling the Enable Partial TP/SL on Chart setting in the TradingView settings category.
Draggable Partial SL/TP
  • Once activated you can adjsust the size of the TP/SL based on where you drag it horizontally on the chart. The following gif shows an example of using this feature.
Draggable Partial SL/TP 2
tip

You can also adjust how large your TP or SL will be by dragging the TP/SL order horizontally on the chart.

caution

Not every exchange functions the same, for example Bitget does not allow you to have more then one stoploss active at a time. This means that if you have a position open and you drag the stoploss to a new price it will cancel and fail if you have an existing stoploss.


One Click Trading

tip

Ensure hotkeys are enabled.

Use hotkeys to activate 1-click trading enabling users to submit limit orders instantly by clicking the chart, orderbook, or depth chart.

  • ‘Limit at clicked price’ means the terminal will submit a limit buy if the clicked price is below last trade price and a limit sell if above last trade price.

Additional information

caution
  • Stoplosses do not function identically across all exchanges
    • As an example on bitget you will not be able to activate more then a single stoploss for an active position due to how the exchange handles stoplosses
    • Some exchanges and/or settings will allow stops to show as infinity, this functionality can be emulated with the Close-On-Trigger setting for exchanges that do not do infinity stops
  • It is usually a good idea to set the setting Stops Placed on Chart Close on Trigger as this will guarentee you do not accidentally end up an an opposite direct position when trying to close out of a position.

Troubleshooting

  • If you are having issues with chart drawings not saving correctly make sure you save your layout with a name which should fix this behavior.
