### Run ProfitTrailer using PM2

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/installation/linux

Sets execute permissions for the ProfitTrailer JAR file and uses PM2 to start the application. It includes instructions for managing multiple bots by editing the PM2 configuration file and commands for saving the process list and setting up startup.

```shell
cd /var/opt/pt
chmod +x ProfitTrailer.jar

# Now run the pm2 commands below to start your bot.
# Note: When running a second bot
# edit pm2-ProfitTrailer.json file with vi or nano or your preffered editor
# and change name property inside the file to a unique name and save


pm2 start pm2-ProfitTrailer.json

pm2 save
pm2 startup
```

### Configure Indicator Source (ProfitTrailer Configuration)

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/config/source

This configuration snippet demonstrates how to set the source for indicators in ProfitTrailer. It shows examples of using OPEN prices for RSI and HLC3 for EMALINE. Ensure the chosen source is compatible with the specific indicator.

```plaintext
# Our RSI was built using OPEN prices instead of close prices
DEFAULT_A_buy_strategy_label = CURRENTRSI
DEFAULT_A_buy_strategy = RSI
DEFAULT_A_buy_value = 10

# If price is below EMALINE (HLC3)
DEFAULT_B_buy_strategy = EMALINE
DEFAULT_B_buy_value = -1
```

```plaintext
# OUR RSI will use the OPEN PRICES to calculate RSI value
CURRENTRSI_candle_period = 300
CURRENTRSI_length = 14
CURRENTRSI_source = OPEN

# OUR EMALINE will be based on HLC3 values
EMALINE_candle_period = 3600
EMALINE_length = 14

--------------------------------

### ProfitTrailer DCA Buy Strategy Example (DEFAULT_DCA_B)

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/config/range

This example illustrates a DCA buy strategy configuration. It uses the RSI indicator to determine if the highest RSI value in the last 5 candles is below 30. It sets the DCA buy strategy and the related value.

```

--------------------------------

### LASTSELL Strategy with Buy Value Configuration Example

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/config/lastsell

This example shows how to use the `buy_value` parameter with the LASTSELL strategy. The `buy_value` (e.g., 2%) is used to calculate a new trigger price by adding or subtracting a percentage from the last sold price. The buy condition is met if the current ask price is below this calculated trigger price.

```plaintext
DEFAULT_A_buy_strategy = LASTSELL
DEFAULT_A_buy_value = 2

Sold Price of our last sell for this PAIR was 0.0352965
\ Trigger = 0.0352965 * ((100 + 2) / 100) = 0.03600243 (2 is our buy_value)
Current ask price is 0.0351170 \
So the LASTSELL value is true as trigger is higher than current ask price.
```

--------------------------------

### CANDLE Strategy Buy/Sell Example

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/config/candle

This configuration demonstrates how to set up buy and sell strategies using the CANDLE indicator. It specifies conditions based on the candle's open price and a percentage value. The strategy relies on the CANDLE indicator's return value.

```conf
# Buy if price is more than 2% above the candle open
DEFAULT_A_buy_strategy_label = CANDLEOPEN
DEFAULT_A_buy_strategy = CANDLE
DEFAULT_A_buy_value = 2

# Sell if price is below the candle open
DEFAULT_A_sell_strategy_label = CANDLEOPEN

### LASTDCABUY Strategy with Buy Value Example (ProfitTrailer)

Source: https://wiki.profittrailer.com/en/config/lastdcabuy

Illustrates the use of the LASTDCABUY strategy with a 'buy_value' parameter to define a percentage-based trigger for buys, showing a scenario where the strategy evaluates to false.

```ini
DEFAULT_DCA_A_buy_strategy = LASTDCABUY
DEFAULT_DCA_A_buy_value = -2

Price of our last DCA buy for this PAIR was 0.0352965
\ Trigger = 0.0352965 * ((100 - 2) / 100) = 0.03459057 (-2 is our buy_value)
Current ask price is 0.0351170 \
So the LASTDCABUY value is false as trigger is lower than current ask price.
```

The condition ensures a sale occurs when the combined profit meets specific targets relative to the total cost and a trading volume factor.

```text
DEFAULT_DCA_SO1_take_profit_target = (DIFF + SPNL) > (COST * 0.01) &&  (DIFF + SPNL) > (TCV * 0.0008)
DEFAULT_DCA_SO1_take_profit_portion = 25
