Stop Loss and profit target

Pls… How do I figure out where to set my SL and target profit… I’m demo trading and I always get stop out fast while the market still moves my predicted direction. I do use ATR but maybe It’s not properly translated.
NB: I’m on 15mins time frame.

Stops should be derived firstly from chart levels. TA on time-frames less than 1 day is speculative at best. But ATR is useful as a yardstick to make sure the TA-based SL is not too tight (or loose).

ATR can be the SL indicator of last resort where the TA doesn’t show a logical exit price - but in that case, should you be taking this trade?

Maybe the problem is not your SL
