Trail Stop (trail.stop) 🛑

Stops a local trailing stop previously started with trail.start.

This cancels the client‑side trailing loop for a given position. No server RPC is required.

Alias: trstop

Purpose

  • Cancel the active trailing logic for a specific position ticket.
  • Useful when you no longer want SL to auto‑adjust.

Usage đź’»

dotnet run -- trail.stop -p demo -t 123456

Input Parameters ⬇️

Parameter Type Required Description
--profile, -p string yes Profile name (from profiles.json).
--ticket, -t ulong yes Position ticket (numeric ID).

Output ⬆️

Text

  • âś” trailing stopped for #<ticket> — success (exit code 0).
  • No active trailing for #<ticket> — nothing to stop (exit code 2).
  • Errors are printed with details; fatal error sets exit code 1.

Notes & Safety 🛡️

  • Trailing is client‑side — it runs only while your app/CLI is running.
  • Stopping a trailer does not modify SL/TP on the server; it only stops further automatic updates.
  • You can manually adjust SL/TP afterwards using Modify or Position.modify.points.

Method Signatures

// Preferred, if implemented in service layer
public void StopTrailing(ulong ticket)
    {
        if (_activeTrails.TryRemove(ticket, out var cts))

Code Reference 🧩

var trTicketOpt = new Option<ulong>(new[] { "--ticket", "-t" }, "Position ticket") { IsRequired = true };

var trailStop = new Command("trail.stop", "Stop local trailing stop for a position");
trailStop.AddOption(profileOpt);
trailStop.AddOption(trTicketOpt);

trailStop.SetHandler((string profile, ulong ticket) =>
{
    Validators.EnsureProfile(profile);
    Validators.EnsureTicket(ticket);

    if (StopTrailingLocal(ticket))
        Console.WriteLine($"\u2714 trailing stopped for #{ticket}");
    else
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"No active trailing for #{ticket}");
        Environment.ExitCode = 2;
    }
}, profileOpt, trTicketOpt);

// Helper in Program:
static readonly ConcurrentDictionary<ulong, CancellationTokenSource> _trailSessions = new();
static bool StopTrailingLocal(ulong ticket)
{
    return _trailSessions.TryRemove(ticket, out var cts) && TryCancel(cts);
}
static bool TryCancel(CancellationTokenSource cts)
{
    try { cts.Cancel(); return true; } catch { return false; }
}
