Strategies management

[onlinebusiness]

So I have 2 seperate stratigies running on the same Chart at the same time.
1. A long Strategy
2. A short strategy

The problem I'm having is when the short strategy open a trade while the long strategy still hasn't closed the previous trade. or the opposite.
How can I make it so each strategy can open trades only when the other strategy doesn't have any open trades going?
So each strategy has to wait untill there are no open trades on the chart then it can open a new trade.

Thanks a lot

Hi, thanks for writing in. We always recommend unifying the strategies into one strategy so that one strategy can manage the position. See the SampleMACrossover strategy for an example of reversing a position easily. Your strategy can call EnterLong/EnterShort one after the other to close an existing position and open a position in the opposite direction.

Please let me know if I can assist any further.
