Don't want to reverse before stop

[ntfarmer]

My strategy, created with the wizard, consists of conditions:

to go long
to go short ("opposite conditions")

to stop out either position with a trail.

Problem: my strategy will reverse from long to short (or vice versa) if the conditions are met before the position is stopped out. This is not what I want--it should maintain the position until stopped out, not reverse. I must be missing an easy solution to this. Can it be accomplished using the wizard or do I need to program? Thanks.

Your strategy will reverse the moment your conditions are true. If you do not want it to place a reversal trade when you are still in a position you need to add this as one of your conditions. Expand the Strategy category in the Condition Builder and build yourself a condition that says it will only trade when the current market position is flat.
