Step-by-Step Instructions for Customizing Your Automated Profit Targets Within the AdriaNova Layout
Understanding the Profit Target Module in AdriaNova
AdriaNova’s layout includes a dedicated Profit Target Module that automates take-profit orders based on your account balance and risk parameters. This module is accessible from the main trading dashboard under the “Automation” tab. Before making changes, ensure your platform version is up to date – older builds may lack certain customization sliders. You can verify your version in the “Help > About” menu. For the latest updates and documentation, refer to the official resources at https://adrianova.org/.
The module supports three target types: fixed percentage, trailing offset, and dynamic risk-adjusted. Each type applies a different algorithm to close positions when conditions are met. The customization process involves selecting a target type, setting threshold values, and linking them to specific trading pairs or portfolios. All changes are saved locally and synced to your account profile.
Accessing the Configuration Panel
Navigate to “Settings > Automation > Profit Targets.” You will see a list of active trading pairs. Click the gear icon next to any pair to open its configuration panel. Here you can enable or disable automated targets for that specific instrument. Disabled pairs will ignore profit rules and rely on manual closure.
Step-by-Step Customization Process
Start by selecting the target mode. Choose “Fixed Percentage” if you want a constant multiplier of your entry price. For example, setting 2% means the trade closes automatically when price moves 2% in your favor. Enter the value in the “Target %” field using decimal notation (e.g., 1.5 for one and a half percent). Confirm with the “Apply” button.
For trailing targets, switch to “Trailing Offset.” Specify the activation threshold – the minimum profit percentage that must be reached before trailing begins. Then set the trail distance, which is the retracement amount from the peak price. A common setting is activation at 3% and trail distance of 0.5%. This locks in gains while allowing room for further movement.
Dynamic Risk-Adjusted Targets
Advanced users can select “Dynamic (Risk-Based).” This mode calculates targets using your account’s risk percentage and current volatility. You must input your desired risk per trade (e.g., 1%) and the average true range multiplier (default is 3). The system updates target levels automatically as volatility changes. Use the “Test” button to preview the target price without committing.
Testing and Saving Your Configuration
After adjusting parameters, click “Preview” to see how the target behaves with recent historical data. A chart window displays hypothetical exit points. If the results match your strategy, click “Save Profile.” You can create multiple profiles (e.g., “Conservative,” “Aggressive”) and switch between them without re-entering values. Profiles are stored under your account and can be exported as JSON files for backup.
To apply changes globally, use the “Copy to All Pairs” option. This duplicates your current settings across every active trading pair. Be cautious – this overwrites any existing pair-specific configurations. Always verify by opening a few pairs’ panels after copying.
FAQ:
Can I set different profit targets for long and short positions?
Yes. In the configuration panel, toggle the “Long” and “Short” tabs separately. Each side retains its own target type and value.
What happens if I change a target while a trade is running?
The new target applies only to trades opened after the change. Existing trades keep the original target until they close or you manually override them.
Is there a limit on how many profiles I can create?
No. You can create up to 50 named profiles. Each profile stores settings for all pairs and position sides.
Does the dynamic target work with cryptocurrency pairs?
Yes. Dynamic mode uses volatility data from the exchange’s feed. It supports all pairs listed in your AdriaNova account.
Reviews
Marcus L.
I switched from manual targets to AdriaNova’s trailing mode. My win rate improved by 12% because I stopped exiting too early. The setup took under five minutes.

The dynamic risk-adjusted targets are a game-changer for volatile forex pairs. I set risk to 0.8% and the system adjusts targets automatically. No more constant monitoring.

I use multiple profiles for different strategies. Copying settings to all pairs saved me hours of repetitive work. The JSON export feature is reliable for backups.
