#### Calculating stoploss relative to open price
Stoploss values returned from `custom_stoploss()` always specify a percentage relative to `current_rate`. In order to set a stoploss relative to the *open* price, we need to use `current_profit` to calculate what percentage relative to the `current_rate` will give you the same result as if the percentage was specified from the open price.
The helper function [`stoploss_from_open()`](strategy-customization.md#stoploss_from_open) can be used to convert from an open price relative stop, to a current price relative stop which can be returned from `custom_stoploss()`.
#### Trailing stoploss with positive offset #### Trailing stoploss with positive offset
Use the initial stoploss until the profit is above 4%, then use a trailing stoploss of 50% of the current profit with a minimum of 2.5% and a maximum of 5%. Use the initial stoploss until the profit is above 4%, then use a trailing stoploss of 50% of the current profit with a minimum of 2.5% and a maximum of 5%.
Please note that the stoploss can only increase, values lower than the current stoploss are ignored.

Instead of continuously trailing behind the current price, this example sets fixed stoploss price levels based on the current profit. Instead of continuously trailing behind the current price, this example sets fixed stoploss price levels based on the current profit.
