Master Algorithmic Exit Strategies for Automated Trading

Know when to exit — protect profits and minimize losses with objective rules

In algorithmic trading, knowing when to exit is just as crucial as knowing when to enter. This self-paced course, Exit Strategies for the Algorithmic Trader, gives you the tools to develop and implement effective exit logic—trailing stops, profit targets, time-based exits, and advanced techniques using VWAP, momentum, and Maximum Adverse Excursion (MAE)—so you can protect profits and cut losses in TradeStation and MultiCharts.

Entries get attention — exits determine your P&L

Most traders spend hours refining entries but leave exits vague: a fixed stop, a gut-feel target, or no plan at all. In automated systems, that gap shows up fast—giving back open profits, holding losers too long, or exiting winners too early.

This course walks through exit techniques tailored to different trading styles and market conditions, with real-world examples, case studies, and EasyLanguage code you can backtest, adapt, and integrate into your own strategies.

Design trailing stop exits that lock in profits as a trade moves in your favor
Structure fixed and dynamic profit targets based on market structure
Implement time-based exits for session, bar-count, and end-of-day rules
