### 1. Enabled

If enabled, a Stop Loss will be added when the position is opened.

### 2.1 Stop loss level as % of breakeven price

Stop loss order will be placed at % of the position's break-even price upon opening.

For example, if a **Long** position (including all entry and exit commissions) was opened at a price of **200** and a deviation of **3%** is specified (as in the screenshot at point 2), the SL will be placed at price = 200 x (100 - 3) / 100 = **194.**

### 2.2 Stop loss as % of average grid order price.

Upon opening a position, Stop Loss will be placed as a % of the average price of all grid orders. If only one order is placed, the Stop Loss will be based on that order's level.

### 3. Specific Stop Loss price

Exact Stop Loss order price is specified.&#x20;
