Those stoploss modes can be *on exchange* or *off exchange*. If the stoploss is *on exchange* it means a stoploss limit order is placed on the exchange immediately after buy order happens successfully. This will protect you against sudden crashes in market as the order will be in the queue immediately and if market goes down then the order has more chance of being fulfilled.

It is also possible to have a default stop loss, when you are in the red with your buy, but once your profit surpasses a certain percentage, the system will utilize a new stop loss, which can have a different value.

For example your default stop loss is 5%, but once you have 1.1% profit, it will be changed to be only a 1% stop loss, which trails the green candles until it goes below them.

You should also make sure to have this value (`trailing_stop_positive_offset`) lower than your minimal ROI, otherwise minimal ROI will apply first and sell your trade.

Read the [next section](#trailing-only-once-offset-is-reached) to keep stoploss at 5% of the entry point.
