I use a service called Tradestops that sends me an email when my trailing stop has been breached. No market maker is aware of either the breach or my decision to sell the next day. I can set intra-day stops, but I prefer using ghe closing price.

Trailing stops are (usually) a good idea, but telling your broker about them is not.
