SLTP Trailing offers an interesting set of trade management features, including hidden SL/TP, trailing stop modes, and profit locking. However, during testing on cTrader Desktop v5.7.14 the platform became noticeably less responsive immediately after startup, preventing full verification of the advertised functionality. Further investigation is recommended before production use.

not working perfectly. when we do not set stop loss and we want only to trail the profit, the bot keep closing positions at loss. Also the logic for profit trailing is wrong. the stop loss should move towards our favour if market moves to our favor and never roll back.
