  A trailing stop is a type of stop-loss order that automatically adjusts as the price of a cryptocurrency moves in your favor. It allows you to protect your profits by setting a specific percentage or dollar amount below the current market price. If the price drops by that percentage or amount, the trailing stop order will be triggered and your position will be sold. The trailing stop will continue to move up as the price increases, locking in your gains. This can be a useful tool for traders who want to maximize their profits while minimizing their risk.

  Trailing stop is like having a safety net for your cryptocurrency trades. It's a smart way to protect your profits and limit your losses. Let's say you bought a cryptocurrency at $100 and set a trailing stop of 10%. If the price goes up to $120, your trailing stop will automatically adjust to $108. If the price then drops to $108 or below, your position will be sold. This way, you lock in a profit of at least 8% ($120 - $108) and protect yourself from potential losses. It's a great tool to have in your trading arsenal.
