# Take profit and stop loss orders

> Attach TP and SL to perp orders on testnet V2, or use standalone advanced triggers. Manage triggers on open positions and review execution behavior.

Testnet V2 adds TP/SL in two ways: attached to new orders and as standalone advanced orders. This page covers how to set them up, manage them on open positions, and understand their execution behavior.

## Attach TP/SL when placing an order

On the perps order panel (V2):

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable TP/SL">
    Check the **TP/SL** checkbox on the order panel.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set trigger prices">
    Enter your take-profit and/or stop-loss prices (or offsets, per UI mode).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit the primary order">
    When the primary order fills, linked TP/SL orders are created for the resulting position.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Standalone advanced TP/SL

Use the **Advanced** tab for trigger-based orders without attaching to a new entry:

* **TP Market / TP Limit**: lock in profit at a target price
* **Stop Market / Stop Limit**: cut loss or protect gains

See [Order types](/trading/order-types) for field definitions and triggers.

## Managing TP/SL on open positions

From the **Positions** tab, view existing TP/SL orders linked to each position. You can edit or cancel triggers before they fire.

| Topic          | Detail                                                       |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Trigger source | Mark price / index per market configuration                  |
| Partial fills  | TP/SL size follows position size rules in the UI             |
| Liquidation    | Liquidation can occur before a stop triggers in fast markets |
| Spot           | TP/SL attachment is perps-focused on testnet V2              |

<Warning>
  Liquidation can occur before a stop triggers in fast markets. Always monitor margin and liquidation distance.
