## Examples

C#:

```csharp
var breakEven = new StopLossBreakEven(15, 2);
var takeProfits = new RelativeTakeProfitProtections(new RelativeTakeProfitLastProtection(40));
var result = ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 10000, "myLabel", new RelativeStopLossProtection(20), takeProfits, breakEven);
Print("Stop loss moves to entry + {0} pips after {1} pips: {2}", breakEven.Offset, breakEven.TriggerDistance, result.IsSuccessful);
```

Python:

```python
breakEven = StopLossBreakEven(15, 2)
takeProfits = RelativeTakeProfitProtections(RelativeTakeProfitLastProtection(40))
result = api.ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, api.SymbolName, 10000, "myLabel", RelativeStopLossProtection(20), takeProfits, breakEven)
api.Print(f"Stop loss moves to entry + {breakEven.Offset} pips after {breakEven.TriggerDistance} pips: {result.IsSuccessful}")
