For example you could implement a 1:2 risk-reward ROI with `custom_sell()`.
You should abstain from using custom_sell() signals in place of stoplosses though. It is a inferior method to using `custom_stoploss()` in this regard - which also allows you to keep the stoploss on exchange.
Using custom_sell() signals in place of stoplosses though *is not recommended*. It is a inferior method to using `custom_stoploss()` in this regard - which also allows you to keep the stoploss on exchange.
!!! Note
Returning a `string` or `True` from this method is equal to setting sell signal on a candle at specified time. This method is not called when sell signal is set already, or if sell signals are disabled (`use_sell_signal=False` or `sell_profit_only=True` while profit is below `sell_profit_offset`). `string` max length is 64 characters. Exceeding this limit will cause the message to be truncated to 64 characters.
