Stop Defense
Use this skill for post-entry risk control.
Move stop to entry (breakeven)
bash
${OPENCLAW_HOME:-$HOME/.openclaw}/tools/alpaca/stop_manager.sh move-stop-entry \
--symbol <TICKER> --offset-bps 5 --replace
Protect % of profits
bash
${OPENCLAW_HOME:-$HOME/.openclaw}/tools/alpaca/stop_manager.sh protect-profit \
--symbol <TICKER> --protect-pct 50 --min-gain-pct 0.30 --replace
Interpretation
- •
offset-bps: tiny cushion beyond entry to avoid noise stopouts. - •
protect-pct: fraction of unrealized gain to lock with stop. - •
min-gain-pct: only upgrade to profit-protect after enough gain.
Default operating policy:
- •At +0.3% to +0.5% favorable move: move to breakeven.
- •At +1R or clear extension: protect 40-60% gain.
- •As trend matures: protect 60-75% gain.
Stream-trigger use:
- •Trade update fill/partial-fill wake => run
move-stop-entryimmediately. - •Price shock wake with open profit => run
protect-profitusing 40-70% ladder. - •Always replace old stop orders (
--replace).
