Imagine you want to use `custom_stoploss()` to use a trailing indicator like e.g. "ATR"
!!! Warning
Only use `dataframe` values up until and including `current_time` value. Reading past
`current_time` you will look into the future, which will produce incorrect backtesting results
and throw an exception in dry/live runs.
see [Common mistakes when developing strategies](strategy-customization.md#common-mistakes-when-developing-strategies) for more info.
!!! Note
`dataframe['date']` contains the candle's open date. During dry/live runs `current_time` and
`trade.open_date_utc` will not match the candle date precisely and using them directly will throw
