stopSell

ctx.order.stopSell(price, params)

At a glance — place a pending sell order at price, below the current market: it triggers on a downside breakdown. Returns an OrderTicket.

Signature

stopSell(price: number, params: EntryParams): OrderTicket

Example

order/breakout-bracket
import { defineStrategy, DonchianChannel, type EntryParams } from '@nexpips/sdk-trading';


/**
 * Straddle de cassure : un `stopBuy` au-dessus du canal de Donchian et un
 * `stopSell` en dessous. Le premier niveau touché entre dans le sens de la
 * cassure (l'autre ordre reste en attente — à annuler dans `onOrderFilled`
 * dans une vraie stratégie).
 */
export default defineStrategy({
  symbol: 'EURUSD',
  timeframe: 'H1',
  risk: { maxRiskPercentPerTrade: 1, maxOpenPositions: 1, maxDailyLossPercent: 5 },
  setup: (api) => {
    const dc = api.use(DonchianChannel, { period: 20 });


    return {
      onBar(ctx) {
        if (!ctx.position.isFlat || ctx.position.hasPendingOrder) return;


        const band = dc.at(0);
        const entry: EntryParams = {
          riskPercent: 1,
          stopLoss: { type: 'atr', period: 14, multiple: 2 },
          takeProfit: { type: 'rr', value: 2 },
        };


        ctx.order.stopBuy(band.upper, entry);
        ctx.order.stopSell(band.lower, entry);
      },
    };
  },
});
