View Positions

/positions                          List all positions
/positions poly                     Polymarket positions only
/positions futures                  Futures positions only
/position <id>                      Position details

Stop-Loss

/sl <position-id> at 0.35           Set stop-loss price
/sl <position-id> -10%              Stop-loss 10% below entry
/sl poly "Trump" at 0.35            Set by market name

Take-Profit

/tp <position-id> at 0.65           Set take-profit price
/tp <position-id> +20%              Take-profit 20% above entry

Trailing Stop

Partial Exits

/tp <position-id> at 0.55 size 50%  Take profit on half
/sl <position-id> at 0.40 size 25%  Stop-loss on quarter

TypeScript API Reference

Create Position Manager

import { createPositionManager } from 'clodds/positions';

const positions = createPositionManager({
  // Monitoring
  checkIntervalMs: 5000,

  // Execution
  orderType: 'market',  // 'market' | 'limit'
  limitBuffer: 0.01,    // Buffer for limit orders

  // Storage
  storage: 'sqlite',
  dbPath: './positions.db',
});

// Start monitoring
await positions.start();

List Positions

const all = await positions.list();

for (const pos of all) {
  console.log(`${pos.id}: ${pos.platform} ${pos.market}`);
  console.log(`  Side: ${pos.side}`);
  console.log(`  Size: ${pos.size}`);
  console.log(`  Entry: ${pos.entryPrice}`);
  console.log(`  Current: ${pos.currentPrice}`);
  console.log(`  P&L: ${pos.pnl} (${pos.pnlPercent}%)`);
  console.log(`  Stop-loss: ${pos.stopLoss || 'none'}`);
  console.log(`  Take-profit: ${pos.takeProfit || 'none'}`);
}

Set Stop-Loss

// Absolute price
await positions.setStopLoss({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  price: 0.35,
});

// Percentage from entry
await positions.setStopLoss({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  percentFromEntry: 10,  // 10% below entry
});

// Percentage from current
await positions.setStopLoss({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  percentFromCurrent: 5,  // 5% below current
});

// Partial stop-loss
await positions.setStopLoss({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  price: 0.35,
  sizePercent: 50,  // Exit 50% of position
});

Set Take-Profit

// Absolute price
await positions.setTakeProfit({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  price: 0.65,
});

// Percentage from entry
await positions.setTakeProfit({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  percentFromEntry: 20,  // 20% above entry
});

// Multiple take-profit levels
await positions.setTakeProfit({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  levels: [
    { price: 0.55, sizePercent: 25 },  // 25% at 0.55
    { price: 0.60, sizePercent: 25 },  // 25% at 0.60
    { price: 0.70, sizePercent: 50 },  // 50% at 0.70
  ],
});

Set Trailing Stop

// Percentage trail
await positions.setTrailingStop({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  trailPercent: 5,  // Trail 5% below high
});

// Absolute trail
await positions.setTrailingStop({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  trailAmount: 0.05,  // Trail $0.05 below high
});

// Activate after target
await positions.setTrailingStop({
  positionId: 'pos-123',
  trailPercent: 5,
  activateAt: 0.55,  // Only start trailing after 0.55
});

Remove Stops

// Remove stop-loss
await positions.removeStopLoss('pos-123');

// Remove take-profit
await positions.removeTakeProfit('pos-123');

// Remove trailing stop
await positions.removeTrailingStop('pos-123');

// Remove all
await positions.removeAllStops('pos-123');

Event Handlers

// Stop-loss triggered
positions.on('stopLossTriggered', (position, result) => {
  console.log(`🛑 Stop-loss hit: ${position.market}`);
  console.log(`  Entry: ${position.entryPrice}`);
  console.log(`  Exit: ${result.exitPrice}`);
  console.log(`  P&L: ${result.pnl}`);
});

// Take-profit triggered
positions.on('takeProfitTriggered', (position, result) => {
  console.log(`✅ Take-profit hit: ${position.market}`);
  console.log(`  P&L: ${result.pnl}`);
});

// Trailing stop triggered
positions.on('trailingStopTriggered', (position, result) => {
  console.log(`📉 Trailing stop hit: ${position.market}`);
  console.log(`  High: ${position.highWaterMark}`);
  console.log(`  Exit: ${result.exitPrice}`);
});

// Price approaching stop
positions.on('approaching', (position, type, distance) => {
  console.log(`⚠️ ${position.market} ${distance}% from ${type}`);
});

Position Summary

const summary = await positions.getSummary();

console.log(`Total positions: ${summary.count}`);
console.log(`Total value: $${summary.totalValue}`);
console.log(`Unrealized P&L: $${summary.unrealizedPnl}`);
console.log(`With stop-loss: ${summary.withStopLoss}`);
console.log(`With take-profit: ${summary.withTakeProfit}`);

Stop Types

TypeDescription
Stop-LossExit when price drops to limit losses
Take-ProfitExit when price rises to lock in gains
Trailing StopDynamic stop that follows price up
Break-EvenMove stop to entry after profit target

Order Execution

OptionDescription
marketImmediate execution at current price
limitExecute at specified price or better
bufferAdd buffer to limit price for fills

Best Practices

  1. Always set stops — Don't leave positions unprotected
  2. Use trailing stops — Lock in gains as price moves
  3. Partial exits — Scale out at multiple levels
  4. Monitor approaching — Get alerts before triggers
  5. Review filled stops — Check execution quality
