Is There a Way to Close Only Winning Trades in TradersPost?

Currently, TradersPost does not have a built-in feature that allows users to close only positions that are in profit. While traders can manually close positions or use exit signals for specific tickers, there is no automated method for closing only winning trades.

There is an existing button in the interface that lets users close all positions within a broker account, but this function cannot be triggered via a webhook. The request to add a “close only profitable positions” feature has been noted by the TradersPost team, and it may be considered for future development.

Potential Benefits of a “Close Profitable Positions” Feature

• Allows traders to lock in gains automatically while keeping losing trades open for potential recovery.

• Reduces the need for manual trade monitoring, improving efficiency.

• Could be integrated with automation strategies to refine trade management.

Future Development Considerations

While this feature is not currently available, TradersPost prioritizes new features based on user feedback. If implemented, it could be added as part of the platform’s automation and trade management tools.

Traders interested in this functionality should stay updated on feature announcements and provide feedback to help shape future platform improvements.

Conclusion

A feature that closes only profitable positions does not currently exist in TradersPost but has been acknowledged as a potential future addition. Traders looking for more automation in trade management should keep an eye on updates as TradersPost continues to expand its capabilities.
