Hello hakanshuker,

Thank you for your post.

There's a number of different options for setting your stops and profit targets depending on what you want them to do.

Here is one example from our help guide that goes over how to set a basic stop and target based on your entry price and then move the stop loss to breakeven after a certain number of ticks in your favor:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/modifying_the_price_of_stop_lo.htm

Here's a more advanced example that shows using OnOrderUpdate and OnExecution to submit your profit target and stop loss orders:

Also, here are links to our help guide regarding SetStopLoss() and SetProfitTarget():
