## Automated Exit Strategies

ARCHR offers **Basic Mode** (single TP/SL/TS/TTP) and **Trading Plan Mode** (multi-rule plans). See [Sell Options](/docs/sell-options) for the full comparison and built-in plans (Trench Snipe, Moonbag Runner, Profit Clipping).

### Global Settings (Basic Mode)

These settings apply to all positions when using Basic Mode:

- **Take Profit**: Automatic profit-taking percentage (default: OFF)
- **Stop Loss**: Loss protection percentage (default: OFF)  
- **Trailing Stop**: Dynamic stop-loss that follows price increases (default: OFF)
- **Trailing Take Profit (TTP)**: Activates trailing only after a position reaches a minimum profit threshold, then trails the peak with a configurable drawdown. Two parameters: Activation (5–1000%) and Drawdown (1–50%). Default: OFF.
- **Price Protection**: Auto-sell after 3 minutes if price doesn't increase from purchase (applies to auto-buys only)
- **Moon Bag Mode**: Partial sell that recovers investment + profits while keeping upside exposure (default: OFF)

### Per-Position Overrides

You can customize Take Profit and Stop Loss for individual positions, overriding your global settings. This is useful for:

- High-conviction plays that deserve wider stop losses
- Tokens where you want to take profits earlier
- Volatile tokens that need more breathing room

See **[Position Settings](/docs/position-settings)** for details on customizing settings per position.

## Moon Bag Mode

An alternative exit strategy that modifies how Take Profit, Trailing Stop, and Trailing Take Profit work:

- Instead of selling 100%, sell only enough to recover investment + most profits
- Keep a small "moon bag" of tokens for potential further gains
- In Basic Mode, auto-sells are disabled after moon bag executes — you control the rest
- In Plan Mode, subsequent plan stages continue on remaining tokens

See [Moon Bag Mode](/docs/moon-bag-mode) for configuration details.

## Protective Features

- **Auto-Buy Protection**: Prevents duplicate auto-buys of the same token you've already traded (default: ON). See [Trading Settings](/docs/trading-settings).
- **Low-Balance Auto-Buy Protection**: Soft-pauses signal/copy auto-buys when the wallet wouldn’t keep enough SOL for sell fees on open positions after the next buy; resumes automatically with no settings changed. See [Trading Settings](/docs/trading-settings).
- **Price Protection**: 3-minute auto-sell for auto-buys that don't gain value
- **Filters**: Shield (token safety), Market Cap range, Holders minimum, Social presence — all configurable per-signal or globally
- **Emergency Sell**: Manual sell is always available regardless of settings
