Can some one clearly explain me Bracket order, Ive seen Hanan's video but still executed two wrong bracket orders

For example: I want to execute a BO by buying a stock of 100@150 and sell automatically when it touches 160.Is putting SL compulsory in BO? If yes, I want to put a SL of 20, I am really confused with words ticks,absolute !! :frowning:

Let me explain:- U bought at 150, square off order at 160, stop loss at 130 and trailing ticks as 5.

Now if it goes up, when it reaches 165, your stoploss becomes 135 and so on.

Sir, I think it was a mistake…when it reaches 155 stoploss (not 165 because at 160 trade will square off as target reached!) becomes 135.

One more thing…there is no Absolute option in trailing stoploss. Only ticks we need to use…correct me if I am wrong. I traded with Absolute 2 target, Absolute 1 SL and ticks (absolute option not available) 5 trailing SL. But trailing SL didnt worked and my trade went with loss as it squared off at SL though it went up +1 before this.
