CORNELIUS, N.C. — Today, VectorVest announced the release of ProfitLocker Pro, a unique, proprietary, ratcheting trading Stop for Canadian shares. The ProfitLocker Pro Stop allows a stock to fluctuate early in a trade when it’s below a target percentage gain and tightens automatically as the stock moves closer to the target.
ProfitLocker Pro can be customized based on five adjustable criteria, raising the bar for Stop-Loss control during a trade. Changes are viewable on a stock chart as they are made.
“We have ensured that ProfitLocker Pro offers a variety of traders the best possible performance and a highly intuitive adjustment—of any Stop available today,” said Don Payton, CEO of VectorVest, Inc. “This furthers our commitment to providing the best rules-based automated trading systems for investors.”
So, how does it work? ProfitLocker Pro holds the line as a stock moves sideways above a specified Stop. As price moves up, the Stop ratchets up with price, allowing room for fluctuation. As price approaches a specified target, the stop converges toward price, creating a much tighter Stop, still allowing price to continue upward. If the stock begins to fall, profits are locked in.

Charting functionality brings a new, expert level of fine-tuning of Stop settings for specific situations. Adjustments can be made on the fly as stock behavior changes.
