  Let me give you an example of a trailing stop limit buy order in cryptocurrency trading. Suppose you want to buy Ripple (XRP) when its price starts to recover after a dip. You set a trailing stop limit buy order with a trailing percentage of 2% and a limit price of $0.50. As the price of XRP increases, the trailing stop follows the price, always maintaining a 2% difference. If the price reaches $0.50, the order is triggered, and you buy XRP at that price. If the price starts to drop, the trailing stop remains at 2% below the highest price reached. This way, you can automatically buy XRP when it shows signs of recovery without constantly monitoring the market.
