Hi touch.mjb,

Trailing stop losses in cTrader are executed on the server side. Just check the Trailing Stop check box in the Create Order form and set your stop loss as usual.

Best Regards,

Hi Panagiotis, I think touch.mjb was asking about the cAlgo API, not how to open a server side trailing stop from cTrader manually. From my understanding. Currently cAlgo API does not support server side trailing stop. The only way to implement trailing stop in cAlgo is to write your own logic for trailing stop. Am I correct?

Hi jumpycalm,

You are not correct :) You can set trailing stop losses from the API as well. See here.

Best Regards,
