Presets Guide (Exit Strategies)

Presets package reusable take-profit, stop-loss, and trailing-stop rules for eligible positions. They automate order placement and trigger monitoring; they do not guarantee that an exit will fill.

Before You Start​

  • What are presets? Saved exit rules that place or monitor sell attempts after they are applied to a filled position.
  • Rule types: Take Profit (sell on gains), Stop Loss (limit losses), and Trailing Stop (follow upside then exit on a retrace).
  • Coverage: Each rule specifies what percentage of your position to sell.
  • Execution: Take-profit rules place limit orders; stop-loss and trailing-stop rules create protective stop orders.
Why Use Presets?

Presets reduce manual monitoring. The actual result still depends on trigger detection, position size, open reservations, liquidity, and provider execution.

How Presets Work​

  1. You create a preset with one or more exit rules.
  2. After buying a position, you apply the preset (manually or automatically).
  3. PolyBot places the appropriate orders:
    • Take Profit: Limit sell orders at your target prices.
    • Stop Loss: Protective orders that trigger if price drops.
    • Trailing Stop: Protective orders that follow the high-water mark after entry.
  4. When a monitored trigger is reached, PolyBot attempts the configured exit. A limit order can remain open; a market-style stop can slip, partially fill, or fail.

Quick Presets​

PolyBot offers four pre-built presets for common strategies:

PresetTake ProfitStop LossStrategy
🛡️ Conservative+30% → Sell 100%-20% → Sell 100%Balanced risk/reward
🔥 Aggressive+50% → Sell 100%-10% → Sell 100%High targets, tight stops
⚖️ Balanced+25% → Sell 50%, +50% → Sell 50%-15% → Sell 100%Scale out profits
📈 Scalper+10% → Sell 100%-5% → Sell 100%Quick small gains

Using a Quick Preset​

  1. Run /preset in Telegram or open All Tools → Presets in the Mini App.
  2. Select one of the quick presets.
  3. Optionally set it as your default.
  4. Done! Apply it to positions after buying.

Creating Custom Presets​

Build your own exit strategy with custom rules.

Step 1: Start Creation​

  1. Run /preset or go to Presets → New Preset in Telegram or the Mini App.
  2. Choose ✏️ Create Custom.

Step 2: Name Your Preset​

Enter a name (e.g., "My Strategy", "Crypto Exits").

Step 3: Add Rules​

For each rule, specify:

  1. Rule Type: Take Profit, Stop Loss, or Trailing Stop
  2. Trigger / trail %: When to trigger (e.g., +25% for TP, -15% for SL, 10% trail for trailing stop)
  3. Sell %: How much of your position to sell (25%, 50%, 75%, or 100%)

Take Profit Triggers: +10%, +25%, +50%, +100%, +150%, +200%, +300% (or custom)

Stop Loss Triggers: -5%, -10%, -15%, -20%, -25%, -30% (or custom)

Trailing Stop Distances: 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% (or custom)

Step 4: Review Coverage​

The coverage bar shows how much of your position is allocated:

🔒 Position Coverage:
├ TP: ████████░░ 80%
└ SL: ██████████ 100%
  • Each rule type (TP and SL) can total up to 100%.
  • You can have multiple TP rules that add up (e.g., 50% at +25%, 50% at +50%).

Step 5: Save​

  1. Tap ✅ Done when finished adding rules.
  2. Choose whether to set as default.

Understanding Rules​

Take Profit Rules​

Sell when price increases by a percentage from your entry.

Example: Buy at 50¢, set +20% take profit.

  • Target price: 50¢ × 1.20 = 60¢
  • At 60¢, the take-profit limit order becomes executable if it has sufficient queue priority and matching liquidity.

Multiple Take Profit Rules:

📈 Take Profit:
   • At +25% → Sell 50%
   • At +50% → Sell 50%

This scales out — sell half at +25%, remaining half at +50%.

Stop Loss Rules​

Sell when price decreases by a percentage from your entry.

Example: Buy at 50¢, set -20% stop loss.

  • Trigger price: 50¢ × 0.80 = 40¢
  • If price drops to 40¢, the stop triggers an exit attempt.
Stop Loss Behavior

The trigger price is not a guaranteed fill price. Depending on the selected execution mode, a stop can accept worse prices or enforce protection that causes no fill. See the Stop-Loss Guide.

Trailing Stop Rules​

Sell after the price rises and then retraces by your trail distance.

Example: Buy at 50¢, set a 10% trailing stop.

  • Price climbs to 70¢ → high-water mark is 70¢ and trailing floor is 63¢.
  • Price climbs to 80¢ → floor moves to 72¢.
  • Price falls to 72¢ → trailing stop triggers an exit attempt.

Trailing stops are useful when you want to ride upside without manually moving a fixed stop.

Applying Presets​

Active Presets & Orders​

When you apply a preset:

  1. Take Profit orders are placed as limit sell orders on the Polymarket orderbook.
  2. Stop Loss orders are created as protective orders monitored by PolyBot.
  3. Trailing Stop orders are monitored by PolyBot and update from the position's high-water mark.

Viewing Active Orders​

  • Go to 📈 Limit Orders to see your take-profit limit orders.
  • Go to 🛡️ Stop Loss to see your stop-loss and trailing-stop orders.

Canceling Applied Presets​

If you want to cancel all orders from an applied preset:

  1. Go to your portfolio position.
  2. The applied preset is shown.
  3. Cancel individual orders or the entire preset.

Price Calculations​

Take Profit Target Price​

Target Price = Entry Price × (1 + Trigger% / 100)

Examples (Entry at 50¢):

TriggerCalculationTarget
+25%50 × 1.2562.5¢
+50%50 × 1.5075¢
+100%50 × 2.00100¢ (invalid*)

*Prices must be between 1¢ and 99¢. Rules with invalid target prices are skipped.

Stop Loss Trigger Price​

Trigger Price = Entry Price × (1 - |Trigger%| / 100)

Examples (Entry at 50¢):

TriggerCalculationTarget
-10%50 × 0.9045¢
-20%50 × 0.8040¢
-30%50 × 0.7035¢

Constraints & Limits​

Trailing-stop quick distances5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%

What Happens with Small Positions?​

  • If a rule would result in fewer than 5 shares, that order is skipped.
  • Example: You hold 8 shares, rule says sell 50% (4 shares) — order is skipped because 4 < 5.

Example Strategies​

Conservative Long-Term​

Good for positions you expect to grow steadily:

Take Profit: +50% → Sell 100%
Stop Loss: -25% → Sell 100%

Scale-Out Strategy​

Lock in profits progressively:

Take Profit: +20% → Sell 33%
Take Profit: +40% → Sell 33%
Take Profit: +60% → Sell 34%
Stop Loss: -15% → Sell 100%

Tight Risk Management​

For volatile markets:

Take Profit: +15% → Sell 100%
Stop Loss: -10% → Sell 100%

Troubleshooting​

  • Preset not applying: Ensure you have a position and the preset has valid rules for your entry price.
  • Order not placed: Check if calculated shares meet the 5-share minimum.
  • Invalid target price: Prices outside 1¢–99¢ are invalid. Adjust your trigger percentage.
  • Auto-apply not working: Verify auto-apply is enabled in Settings and you have a default preset set.
  • Orders still active after deleting preset: Deleting a preset doesn't cancel existing orders — cancel them manually.
