In this window, you can also define the “Volume” you wish to trade, measured in lots (1 lot = 100,000 units of currency), as well as defining your “Stop Loss” and “Take Profit” levels.

Once these levels are defined, they will appear as horizontal lines on the chart, at the corresponding price levels.
