How to stop a strategy from re-entering after target.

[kiriru]

I am using > and < as conditions for long and short.
With two positions, I want to close the first position at say, 20 ticks and the second left till the reverse conditions take place.
Now, how can I stop the script from re-entering a position after the target is filled.
It seems to re-enter because the > or < conditions remain true at target.
Thanks,
Kiriru

Hi kiriru,

Start by taking a look at this sample on scaling out of a position.

Then, you will need to rework your code to ensure the conditions for entry are no longer true.

You may want to use something like a MarketPosition check.

Or a bool check to see if the bool is still true or false.
