How to set a stop-loss
Attach a stop-loss to a position using ROE presets or a custom amount, with fee-floor protection against a self-liquidating stop.
A stop-loss closes your position automatically if the market moves against you past a level you set. Bloxwap anchors the trigger to break-even and won't let you set a stop so tight that fees would trigger it instantly.
- 1
Open the position controls
Open a position, or open the Manage Position view for one you already hold.
- 2
Open the Stop Loss composer
Tap into the Stop Loss composer for that position.
- 3
Pick a level
Choose an ROE preset such as −10%, or open the custom numpad to dial in an exact amount. Presets so tight that fees would trigger them instantly are grayed out, so you cannot set a self-liquidating stop.
- 4
Check the trigger price
The composer shows the trigger price, anchored to break-even (your entry plus the round-trip fee) so the number reflects real cost.
- 5
Enable and set
Toggle the stop Enabled and tap Set to arm it. You can disarm or adjust it later without retyping your numbers.
A stop-loss is one risk control — see the Glossary for how liquidation works, and practice risk-free first in demo mode (see the FAQ).
