Take Profit

The Take Profit block defines where your winning trades automatically close, locking in your gains. It ensures you capture profit at a predetermined level instead of watching winners turn into losers because you held too long.

Why It Matters

Without a take profit, you rely on other exit signals to close winning trades — which may come too late. A well-placed take profit ensures you capture a meaningful portion of the move while protecting against reversals.

Settings Explained

Take Profit Type — How the target distance is calculated:

• Fixed Pips — A specific number of pips from entry. Example: 100 pips above entry for a long trade
• Percentage — A percentage of the entry price. Example: 2% above entry
• Risk-Reward Ratio — A multiple of your stop loss distance. If your stop is 50 pips, a 2:1 R:R sets take profit at 100 pips. This is the most popular method because it ensures your winners are always larger than your losers by a defined ratio
• ATR — Uses Average True Range for a dynamic target that adapts to volatility
• Indicator Level — Closes the trade at a level defined by another indicator, like at a supply zone or resistance level

Pips — Target distance in pips. Only used with 'Fixed Pips' type.

Percentage — Target as a percentage. Only used with 'Percentage' type.

Risk-Reward Ratio — The multiple of stop loss to use. Only used with 'Risk-Reward Ratio' type. Common values: 1.5, 2.0, 3.0.

ATR Period / ATR Multiplier — ATR calculation parameters. Only used with 'ATR' type.

Indicator Reference / Level / Offset — Indicator-based target parameters. Only used with 'Indicator Level' type.

Example Use Case

You set a Take Profit with a 2:1 Risk-Reward Ratio. If your stop loss is 50 pips, your take profit is automatically placed at 100 pips. This means every winner captures twice as much as every loser costs — so you only need to win 34% of your trades to break even.
