UNICORN Binance Trailing Stop Loss¶

A Python library with a command line interface for a trailing stop loss and smart entry on the Binance exchange.

As UNICORN Binance Trailing Stop Loss Bot we also offer a standalone version that does not require an installed Python environment.

If you put this engine on a market, you should stop trading manually on this market yourself!

Part of ‘UNICORN Binance Suite’.

How to start the trailing stop loss engine:¶

from unicorn_binance_trailing_stop_loss.manager import BinanceTrailingStopLossManager


def callback_error(msg):
    print(f"STOP LOSS ERROR - ENGINE IS SHUTTING DOWN! - {msg}")
    ubtsl.stop_manager()

def callback_finished(msg):
    print(f"STOP LOSS FINISHED - ENGINE IS SHUTTING DOWN! - {msg}")
    ubtsl.stop_manager()
    
def callback_partially_filled(msg):
    print(f"STOP LOSS PARTIALLY_FILLED - ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING! - {msg}")
    
ubtsl = BinanceTrailingStopLossManager(callback_error=callback_error,

Read about the CLI usage.

Description¶

The Python package UNICORN Binance Trailing Stop Loss provides a reuseable library and CLI interface.

After starting the engine, a stop/loss order is placed on Binance and trailed until it is completely fulfilled. If desired, a notification can be sent via email and Telegram afterwards. Then it calls the function passed with the callback_finished parameter or on error it calls the function passed to callback_error.

Partially filled orders are currently not handled by the engine. If you want to react individually to this event, you can use the function provided to callback_partially_filled.

In addition, there is a smart entry option called jump-in-and-trail. This offers the possibility to buy spot, future and margin assets with a limit or market order and then to trail a stop/loss order until sold.

What are the benefits of the UNICORN Binance Trailing Stop Loss?¶

Using websockets for push notifications about price updates and order status updates. (Fast data transfer and low used API weight!)
Smart entry
Supported exchanges:

Exchange	Exchange string	jump-in-and-trail
Binance	`binance.com`
Binance Testnet	`binance.com-testnet`
Binance Futures	`binance.com-futures`
Binance Isolated Margin	`binance.com-isolated_margin`	(experimental)
Binance Margin	`binance.com-margin`

All parameters that expect numbers can be configured with fixed numerical values as well as with percentage values.
Integrated notification system (e-Mail and Telegram).
Test “notification”, “binance-connectivity” and “streams” without starting the engine.
Powered by UNICORN Binance REST API and UNICORN Binance WebSocket API.
Well tested on Linux, Mac and Windows.

If you like the project, please it on GitHub!

Smart entry¶

This function is still in an experimental phase and only available for Isolated Margin.

Do a smart entry by using engine = 'jump-in-and-trail' and providing borrow_threshold.

By activating the jump-in-and-trail engine, the engine first buys the predefined asset amount and then trails them automatically.

Installation and Upgrade¶

The module requires Python 3.7 or above.

The current dependencies are listed here.
