The animation made it very understandable. I liked her explaining various strategies, i.e. as you get closer to your ideal profit price, shorten the trading gap from $5 to $2, so you don't lose a lot of profits.
This is the most clearest explanation I've heard concerning stop loss. You really take your time and go slow so everybody can understand it. Awesome.

What if I want it to trigger at a certain price and if it goes down it does nothing until it goes back to the trigger price?
Having just listened to the Interactive Brokers video on this subject and barely understood a word, I was floored by how simply and elegantly you explained it. Thank you. Subscribed.
I have been looking for something like this for ages and it's taken me until now to find these wonderful, simple yet beautifully detailed explanations. I totally did what you said and watched your previous video first and it cleared a couple of things up for me too. Couldn't click the like and subscribe buttons quick enough
Glad I found this channel. I love that you have the spirit of a teacher and that you get straight to the point. Keep up the good work!
I have watched so many videos on this subject and this is, by far, the best one - so clear, concise and loved the visuals - well done!
Wow. Blown away at how simple you made trailing stop loss easy to understand. I've been wondering for a while what the difference was and this summed it up nicely. Excellent job!
Couldn't be happier to found you. Thank you so much for this video and the previous one of types of orders. I am so much better with visuals and illustrations. Bless you

I can’t thank you enough for the visual examples in your videos! I’m a visual learner and thanks to your video so much makes a lot more sense! I now have a complete understanding of some of the terms and their functions! You’ve got my support and 👍
So clear and concise! No unnecessary lengthy talks or adding flashy music or effects to explain something. Thank you for being so on point! Made me understand trailing stop loss a lot better now.
Arvabelle, you are absolutely incredible at breaking down stock investing concepts. Truly appreciate the great work!!
Great job explaining trail stop. I'm fairly new to trading but after this video I fully understand what a Trailstop is and I will add this technique to my list of trading strategies.
I have viewed so many videos and read so much material without understanding any of it. Thank you for making this video for those of us that don’t understand most of the stock market jargon out there and don’t work in the business. 🎉
Absolutely the BEST explanation I have seen on the trailing stop loss. I tried to understand it from several sources but you nailed it. Keep up the great work
Trailing stops finally make sense. Thank you and enjoy your weekend!

OMG thank u SOOO much Suzanne, I'm reaching the next level of investing and this is one of the last things i need to learn, but i would like to see a video talking more about dividend investing and things such as payout history, pe ratio, volume, market cap and how they determine if a stock is worth investing long term or short term.
Arvabelle, you have a talent for explaining this, and your use of visual aids was icing on the cake. Thanks for refreshing my understanding of a trailing stop!
alright I have seen lots videos on youtube and solved my problems, but this video and entire channel is awesome. Really it's not a waste of time for both the audience and you Miss ❤❤
The best explanations I've found so far!!!
Thank you for making this video. New to investing on my own and struggled to find quality videos to explain the different buy/sell methods. This was perfect for me at my level.

EXCELLENT EXPLANATION! I've been using Trailing stops for some time. The trick is in how to set the right level for your risk profile. Also lots of other considerations. (eg, wash rules), and getting stopped out in a flash crash. Suggestion for future videos: 1) Estimating a Trailing Stop Loss based on High Medium or Low Risk, 2)How to you use Trailing Stops to Buy instead of sell. 3) how do you do that with a bracketed order. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, ARVABELLE!
This is the best explanation on KZread. I've been watching several videos and couldn't understand what Trailing Stop was until I watched your video! THANK YOU!!

Man this is gold! Best video on this topic I’ve seen. I knew what a trailing stop was but felt like I needed a review and I felt like I still learned so much. Your awesome. Keep going please! 🙏🏾
This is by far the best demo showing. and explaining these 2 orders... Everyone else Just TALKs and TALKs. I watched 5 videos and was preety sure But this one makes it so clear.. Thank You... Based on this one I am subscribe.
This covered everything I wanted to know. Spot on. As a visual learner, it was exactly what I needed. Thank you!!! Now the hardest part is figuring out that trigger delta percentage or dollar amount for each trade...

Precisely. Say for instance you were to protect your gains of 100%+ what would be a good trigger Delta percentage for such a trade?
@timmoore6055

@@walfordiii Dome people will use what is called the Average True Range, or ATR; the most common is a 14 day ATR. If you poke around you can probably find the math to use to set up a spread sheet; but easier is to use a charting program; TC 200 or STock Charts both will have it (you may need to do some setup). even with that information, it is up to you to decide how much of that you wish to use. for example, the ATR may be $2.27, to pick a number. That would be fairly tight stop, as in the last 14 days the stock averaged that much move. Or you might want to do some multiple of the ATR; 2x or maybe 2.4x . One ETF I trade had some large down moves; after taking the ATR I fgound tht the largest down move in a day was 2.4x. Hope that helps.
Thank you for making this video. It confirms my understanding of the trailing concept. Very helpful to see your graphic comparison side by side. Question: • Is there a an indicator you would recommend to help gauge the how far the temporary dips might go for say a 14 trading period? • Does price gap typically happens more so in penny stocks, as suppose to big cap S&P 500 or S&P100 stocks? • If the company decides to issue a stock split 4:1, thus the price is lower, would my stop change on its own automatically or would I have to cancel that trailing stop loss before the split, and make a replacement order?
OMG, a real educator! Great explanation. No mumbo jumbo, just plain understandable English.
Your videos are so well done. The way you explain things are so easy to understand. Thank you!
That was one of the best technically sound and easy to understand videos I've come across. Subscribed. Hope to see a video on Options some time from you as well. I'd do two thumbs up but..ya know..rules stuff.

This is one of the best videos that I have seen so far on trailing stop-loss order.
This is the clearest explanation and example of TSL. Other creators just show confusing charts with very broad and vague general statements. Your content is the best so far specially for newbies.

Arvabelle,... You are an excellent teacher. I'm relatively new to actively managing some of my investments, and am trying to learn how to best do so. Thank you for taking the time and making the effort to help others in this endeavor. You've done a great job using visual aids, and explaining things in plain english. (I can't tell you enough, how much I appreciate you Not using jargon.) - Thanks again. 😁👍 *Liked, and Subscribed.
I was trying to learn Trailing Stop orders on Binance, saw several videos, but could not exactly understand, but your animation made much sense, thanks for this video.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It's very helpful & I'll be watching all of your videos. You're very clear & the demos help tremendously.
Thank you!!! Great job explaining. I’m kinda new to this (8 months) and it definitely helped clear some things up.

I watched your 4 Basic types, & now the Trailing Stop videos. An Excellent training video explained extremely well. Silly, but I now have a nice deck of varying Order Type flashcards in my desk drawer. Use it to help me decide what type of order I want depending on the stocks scenario. e.g. - I have faith in a $10 stock & anticipate its rise... I may place a Stop Loss (Buy) order @ $15. If it trends up 5 bucks the order fulfills, & the game begins. Thanks Arvabelle, the best video explanations I have found yet! Recommended.
Thank you so much I've been trying to figure out trailing stop losses work and after numerous videos still wasnt sinking in lol, your video with a simple graphic explained it in like 10 minutes. Thank you SUBSCRIBED hoping the rest of your videos help a slow learner hehe.

Exactly what I needed. I Watched this a while back but I'm more experienced now and understand better. Thanks!
You are so good at explaining this concept. Perfect video.
Always use these orders to protect your gains, and lock in your set prices. I don’t use these orders too often but if you day trade or move in and out of stocks quickly it’s a must.

With a trailing stop loss regular stop loss almost seem useless
Most excellent explanation plus you do not have a plastic smile; most Americans feel they must always look happy, which is a most unnatural mode of living! You are a professor of stock market!
pretty simple explanation. I watched many youtubers but most of them were confusing. congratulations and thank you
Thank you...I'm newbie in your world but I'm doing some progress in my trades....the last 2 trades I went long, it hit my TP but it went down right away... I heard a lot professional traders use this TSL in every trade...Thanks again, this is the 3rd time I watched your video, I'm trying to stick in my head.. U R DA BEST !!!!!
I never used a stop loss, but I should consider it when placing some trades
Should have mentioned when your trailing stop loss is triggered it becomes a market order. Also more trailing stop % information was needed.

The very BEST explanation of trailing stop on KZread. Thanks!!
Simple, clear, educated, articulate, to-the-point presentation. So much better than the millions of useless KZread videos out there. Liked and subscribed.
Excellent presentation. Clear, concise, and informative. Can’t wait to watch further videos.
So glad you simply explained this. So many videos I watched I just couldn't grasp what they were trying to say. Thanks, I subscribed
this was so much more helpful than the other videos and articles i've read about this. thank you! such a great visual teacher.
I've been watching so many videos in this app, but this one is the best explanation i ever head big up ✌️
Wow 😮thank you so much for an awesome video. You are a wonderful instructor and I love the way you explain everything in details. From now on I am using trailing stops! Thank you again.
Perfect explanation! After viewing so many other videos, this was the best one. Thank you !
Great and simple explanation. Too many folks try to over complicate explanations. So thank you for keeping it simple!!
Thank you for an explicite insight on trailing stops. Now will gothrough your previous videos for further information. This is what i heard alot but not utilized. Keep blessed.
It's a very nice topic and videos because most of the trader doesn't know how to use trailing stop but instead they use 1:1 ratio in trading.. Maximizer profit by using trailing stop loose.
So easily explained! I spent too much time on other videos and still wasn't gutting it. Thank you
Thank your for being the best video on KZread explaining this! The visual was so helpful🚀
Wow! Really liked how you used amazing graphs to explain! Thank you
Clarity, simplicity and user friendly. I learned a lot, thank you Arvabelle!
The very best succinct video on stop losses that I have seen yet. I subscribed to Arvabelle's channel even thought I trade derivatives & not stox. Thanx Arvabelle.
One of the simplest and best explanations. Good visuals and examples!!!
Awesome, just what I tuned in for! Thank you and I'm off to look at some of your other content.
Thank you for simplifying these order types. Just brilliant!
Definitely one ,if not "the" clearest explaining videos out there. As with all her others. Brilliant!
I`m going to repeat what others have already said ( my apologies...) but you explain so much better then anyone else i`ve seen ( and were many).. subscribed!!!
You are awesome keep those videos coming need top start learning about buying puts and selling calls ... cant go forever I’ve already told a bunch of peeps about your videos thank you
Thx for that , I used it one time to try and see how it worked but I panicked thinking it was following my price down as well so I closed the position and came here to understand it better Thank you so much
Good job! The information in this video on using a trailing stop loss has been explained in a clear and concise manner.
