SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Price, stopLoss);

I don't know where this ProfitTargetMoveType.Trailing is coming from, SetProfitTarget() can't be use with this.

I'm still in need of help fixing lines 85 and 86 in the picture below

SetStopLoss(CalculationMode.Price, stopLoss);

I don't know where this ProfitTargetMoveType.Trailing is coming from, SetProfitTarget() can't be use with this.

Thank you

Look in the help file:
https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/NT%20HelpGuide%20English.html?setprofittarget.htm

You are using the method in the OnBarUpdate() method.
Try to define it here:

Quoting

protected override void OnStateChange()
{
if (State == State.Configure)
{
// Submits a profit target order 10 ticks away from the avg entry price
SetProfitTarget(CalculationMode.Ticks, 10);
}
}
