Trailing Buy for DCA and Trailing Sell for Take Profit

This feature can improve the time to exit a trade faster and also increase the profit.

If set correctly (or ideal dynamically based on normalized ATR - LINK: https://www.macroption.com/normalized-atr/ - just an idea) it would be a serious improvement to the BOT, because currently, we are setting DCA percentage "blindly".
With a trailing DCA, the price will trail into the support (for buy) and into the resistance (for sell) => in buy the bottom and sell at high :). In my perspective is a more efficient way to DCA than just bomb some percentage in.

For buy: I see it as an extra option on the DCA form to tick an option called "Use Trailing with DCA" and after that, use every DCA percentage that was set as a "Trigger Price" and also adds the values for "Stop %" and "Limit %" to this Trailing option. If a dynamic solution can be found then you can thick another option for "auto trailing" (or something like that).

For sell: it's the same logic. Add an option to thick if you wanted or not to use Trailing, set the "Sell %" and "Limit %" and add it to the current Take Profit options (Custom and Signal: Half the Median or Full Median)

This logic can be implemented and used also for manual trading using Ladder in Smart Orders.

Kudos to all of you and Happy Trading!! :D

Trailing is amazing and I occasionally hit decent topped sold and bottom buy too. Love trailing feature on bot would be nice to have it.
