## How does stop-loss work?

1) set stop-loss percentage when creating investment.
2) Every block we are checking for the updates on-chain to see all the changes in the pools and prices.
3) If the stop-loss percentage was hit - robofarmer will exit the investment, claim rewards, convert all of it to the currency you initially invested, and send it to your wallet.
Important: YieldShield is not charging any platform fees when stop-loss is activated. Only a Gas Fee will be charged from the Gas wallet on the platform.
Important: if you do not have enough funds on your Gas wallet - stop-loss will not be activated as the transaction can't go through.

### How to calculate the stop-loss percentage?

$Stop ~loss \, \% = 100\% - \frac{Initial \,Investment} {Current \,Investment - Gas\, fee}$
Initial investment - investment amount at the moment of creating the investment (calculated in USD).
Current investment - current value of the investment (the price of LP tokens funds are staked to) and rewards collected so far (calculated in USD).
Gas - the total amount of gas spent for this investment (calculated in USD).
