{REQ} help with an exit strategy

Hi there,

I'm unsure of how to code what I am trying to accomplish.
My current strategy has a profit target set. Quite often the price will get just shy of this and reverse.
I am looking for something almost like a trailing stop but more like "If this happens then take this minimum profit".

Say I want 2 points on the emini S&P but if it got up 1 point and starts to turn how could I set a minimum profit of 1/4 point AFTER it turns?

Thank you kindly for any tips.
JJ
