ib-stop-lossDownside stop-loss management for PMCC, naked LEAPS, and stock positions in IB.
Ib Stop Loss is an agent skill from staskh/trading_skills. Downside stop-loss management for PMCC, naked LEAPS, and stock positions in IB. Computes stop prices, detects alerts, and places conditional combo orders. Dry-run by default. Requires TWS or IB Gateway running locally.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.7k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/stop_loss.py`).
It sits in Business, Finance & HR. The repository describes itself as: Claude powered advisor system for option traders. The licence is MIT.
3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b71a74f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
uvFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Ib Stop Loss loads about 1.7k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 612 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
lt-in default. Set it in the shell or a `.env` file.Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Default mode is dry-run — no orders are placed unless --execute is in the request.
TWS or IB Gateway must be running locally with API enabled:
IB_PORT env var — default port when --port is omitted (e.g. IB_PORT=4001 for a Gateway container). Precedence: --port flag > IB_PORT > built-in default. Set it in the shell or a .env file.Port fallback: If the configured port fails, automatically retry on the other port. If the retry succeeds, save to memory which account type worked (live/paper) and reuse it for all IB skill calls in this and future sessions — until the user explicitly asks for the other account. If both ports fail, ask the user to verify that TWS or IB Gateway is running with API access enabled.
Dry-run (default — no orders placed):
uv run python .claude/skills/ib-stop-loss/scripts/stop_loss.pyExecute (cancel orphan orders + place SL_ conditional orders):
uv run python .claude/skills/ib-stop-loss/scripts/stop_loss.py --executeExecute forced (basis = current mid price, can lower existing stops):
uv run python .claude/skills/ib-stop-loss/scripts/stop_loss.py --execute --forcedFormat JSON output as a markdown report with four sections:
List symbols in alert_soon prominently — these are past the early-warning threshold.
Show all_conditional_orders.module (SL_ orders) and all_conditional_orders.manual (manually placed).
If orphan_orders is non-empty, warn that these were cancelled (execute mode) or need manual cancellation (dry-run).
For each entry in positions, show a table:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Symbol | NVDA — pmcc (3 contracts) |
| Spot | $219.05 |
| LEAPS | 200C 20270115 · avg cost $44.27 · current $44.23 · basis $44.27 |
| Stop price | $22.14 (40% stop) → action: place_new |
| LEAPS loss | 0.1% |
| Shorts | 235C 20260515 · received $0.61 · current $0.56 · 9.5% decayed |
Show preserve_existing when a more-protective stop already exists.
Show overwrite (red) when forced=true lowers an existing stop.
Group alerts by symbol. Types:
| Type | Meaning |
|---|---|
leaps_early_warning | LEAPS down ≥ stop_pct/2% from basis |
short_premium_decay | 90%+ of short premium captured — close or roll |
short_near_strike | Spot at/above or within X% of short strike |
alert_soon symbols.| Flag | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
--port | 7497 | IB Gateway/TWS port |
--account | all | Specific account ID |
--symbols | all | Analyze only these symbols |
--legs | none | Specific option legs: SYMBOL:STRIKE[C|P]:EXPIRY (e.g. IBKR:70C:20270115 IBKR:100C:20260918). Right defaults to C. Takes precedence over --symbols. Use when multiple PMCC/LEAPS coexist on the same symbol and only one pairing should get a stop. |
--stop-pct | 40 | Loss % that triggers exit |
--short-near-strike-pct | 5 | Near-strike alert threshold |
--price-mode | mid | Option pricing: mid or last |
--execute | off | Cancel orphans + place SL_ orders |
--forced | off | Use current mid as basis (requires --execute) |

Downside stop-loss management for PMCC, naked LEAPS, and stock positions in IB. Ib Stop Loss is an agent skill from staskh/trading_skills. Downside stop-loss management for PMCC, naked LEAPS, and stock positions in IB.
Ib Stop Loss fits situations like: business, Finance & HR work in your project.
Run `npx skills add staskh/trading_skills --skill ib-stop-loss -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/ib-stop-loss in staskh/trading_skills) into .claude/skills/ib-stop-loss in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add staskh/trading_skills --skill ib-stop-loss -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/ib-stop-loss in staskh/trading_skills) into .agents/skills/ib-stop-loss in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add staskh/trading_skills --skill ib-stop-loss -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ib-stop-loss, .gemini/skills/ib-stop-loss, .github/skills/ib-stop-loss and .opencode/skills/ib-stop-loss in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Ib Stop Loss needs Python for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (uv). Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found notes only (mentions a .env file), nothing it rates as a warning. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
Ib Stop Loss is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.7k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 6.9k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
