SL That you cannot move against your trade

I need a SL that will only allow me to move my SL towards profitability but never against me. Keep me from dropping it. and lock it down!

    Stop Loss Order

    The togglable ability to move the stop loss AWAY from the entry price unless it is above the entry in the case of a long trade and below the entry in the case of a short trade. So once the trade is set and the order filled it will not be able to be adjusted (or cancelled) unless in the direction of the trade
    I believe that it would be a good way to develop discipline and to really consider the risk / reward factors before entering a trade

    Stop loss that can be locked

    It would be cool to have a feature that you can set for the stoploss that would lock your SL until the trade is over. I think it would help a lot of traders that have issues moving stops and hitting daily stop loss or blowing accounts.

      Just came on to suggest this as well.

      I just got on here to suggest this. This would be an awesome feature to set when you are setting PDLL and other risk settings. Have a stop loss that is fixed as well as a moveable stop loss that you can set based on your own parameters. I know a lot of people struggle with moving stop losses on losing trades. Think it would be a cool feature being able to set a second stop loss that you can’t change while in a trade!

    Need "Lock Stop-Loss" feature so I can't move my SL

    How many times have we moved our SL then later regretted it? I'd like the ability to lock it so I can't move it. The caveats here are that it needs to be an OCO SL so if we close the position, the SL goes away too.
