Another option would be to insert a trailing stop once it reaches your 20 pips target. Depending on the currency pair, you will definitely need 10 to 20 pips worth of cushion due to the volatility. If you were to insert one of these, you could

then remove your profit target as well as your stoploss, and allow the “trailing stop” to adjust itself as the trend continues in your direction. It would act as a stoploss and a profit target all at once.
