What is a trailing stop bot?

A trailing stop follows price up and locks in gains: instead of a fixed exit, the stop ratchets higher as the position profits, then closes the trade if price falls back by your chosen percentage — letting winners run while capping give-back. A trailing-stop bot manages that automatically on every position. On Cryptohopper.AI you set the trail percentage (and an optional arm-at-profit threshold), and Cryptohopper enforces it on your exchange, paper-first.

Common features

Percentage trailing stop that ratchets up with price
Optional arm-at-profit threshold (only trail after +X%)
Works with your entries or as a standalone exit manager
Live stop level + distance-to-stop on a dashboard
Paper mode by default; live orders via your Cryptohopper hopper
Configurable per pair

Real-world examples

5% trailing stop

Ride a position up and exit on a 5% pullback from the peak.

Armed at +10%

Only begin trailing once the trade is up 10%, giving it room early on.

Tight runner

A tighter trail for fast movers to bank gains quickly.

Why Cryptohopper.AI fits trailing stop bot projects

Cryptohopper.AI builds the trailing logic and wires it to Cryptohopper so the stop is enforced on your exchange — paper until you enable live. Adjust the trail or arm threshold by chatting.

Build me a trailing-stop bot for BTC/USDT that trails the stop 3% below the highest price since entry and sells through Cryptohopper when hit.

Create a trailing-stop bot with a configurable trail percentage or ATR multiple, a live view of the current stop level, and a paper mode.

Make a bot that arms a trailing stop only after price is up 5% from entry, then trails it.

Build a trailing-take-profit bot that ratchets the stop up as new highs are made and shows the locked-in gain.

Frequently asked questions

How is a trailing stop different from a fixed stop?

A trailing stop follows price upward, staying a set distance below the peak. It locks in gains as the trade works while still cutting the position if price reverses — ideal for riding trends without giving back all the profit.

Does Cryptohopper place the exit?

Yes — the bot monitors the high-water mark on a schedule and sells through your connected Cryptohopper account when the trailing stop is breached, paper-mode by default.

Percentage or ATR-based trail?

Either — a fixed percentage, an ATR multiple, or a stop that only arms after a minimum profit. Ask and it's rebuilt.
