If you are using a US-based broker, you can't explicitly input a stop loss order. What you can do is set an opposite limit order for your trade. For instance, you bought EUR/USD 200,000 units at 1.4000. You wish to cut losses if price hits 1.3950. What you do is put a sell order at 1.3950 for 200,000 units. For taking profits, you do the same. If you wish, for instance, to take profit at 1.4100, set a sell order at that price level for 200,000 units.

Some other online forex brokers, however, allow you to input stop and profits limits. You can simply enter your desired stops when executing a trade. On an open trade or order, just double-click on the item and a pop-up window will show where you can input your targets.
