Each mode can be enabled and adjusted independently according to your trading style.
You can choose between:
• Trailing based on points (pips)
• Trailing based on profit in $ (money)

When you press the same hotkey again for that object, only the object created by the hotkey will be removed, without affecting the others.

You can predefine 3 timeframes of your choice and activate them using the hotkeys 7, 8, and 9.
