You can now add multiple profit targets (PTs) and stop losses (SLs) to your trades, giving you more flexibility when planning and reviewing your risk management.

Step 1: Open the Risk Section

  • In the Trade Tracking Page, scroll down to the Risk section.

  • By default, you’ll see single inputs for Profit target and Stop loss.

Step 2: Enable Partial PT or SL

  • Check the box for Add partial PT or Add partial SL.

  • This expands the section and allows you to add up to 3 profit targets and 3 stop losses.

Step 3: Enter Prices and Quantities

  • For each target/stop, enter:

    • Price → the level you want to exit.

    • Qty → the number of contracts/shares to exit at that price.

  • You can mix and match — e.g., take partial profits at the first two PTs and leave the rest for the final PT.

Step 4: Review Calculations

  • TradeZella automatically calculates:

    • Planned Profit

    • Planned Risk

    • Planned R-Multiple

    • Realized R-Multiple (once the trade closes)

  • These are based on your average entry price across multiple entries.

Example

If you enter at $100 (10 contracts) and $105 (10 contracts), your average entry is $102.50.

  • PT1: Sell 7 contracts at $110

  • PT2: Sell 3 contracts at $120

  • PT3: Sell 10 contracts at $125

  • SL1: Sell 15 contracts at $95

  • SL2: Sell 5 contracts at $90

TradeZella will calculate the adjusted cost, planned profit, planned risk, and R-multiple automatically.

Calculations

Adjusted Cost (what you “spent”):

100*10 + 105*10 = 1000 + 1050 = 2050

Planned Profit (if targets hit):

(110*7) + (120*3) + (125*10) = 770 + 360 + 1250 = 2380 Planned Profit = 2380 - 2050 = +330

Planned Risk (if stops hit):

(95*15) + (90*5) = 1425 + 450 = 1875 Planned Risk = 2050 - 1875 = 175

R-Multiple (Risk/Reward Ratio):

330 / 175 ≈ 1.89R

👉 This means for every 1 unit of risk, you’re aiming to make ~1.9 units of reward.

That’s it!

With multiple PT/SLs, you can plan trades more realistically and track how well you stick to your strategy.
