# Stop signal Stop signals are used to exit a position. If you are currently in a long position, and your general strategy triggers a stop signal thanks to the[ Indicators Box](/strategy-boxes/indicators-box.md), and it meets your [Exit position rules Box](/triggers-boxes/exit-position-rules.md) requirements, the long will be immediatly closed. It can be used only with the [TP/SL Signal](/triggers-boxes/exit-position-rules/tp-sl-signal.md) feature in the [Exit position rules Box](/triggers-boxes/exit-position-rules.md). --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
