How to limit my strategy to only one trade per session?

[stevep3]

I need to test my strategy for only one entry per session on my intraday tick chart, long or short. I have only used the wizard so far and can not write the script.

How would be the best way to do this?

Hello stevep3,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately this would not be possible through the wizard. You would need to code this segment.

Please see our Reference Sample on Halting a Strategy Once User Defined Conditions Are Met:

Place a Counter in "OnExecution" of your order

Place the condition Counter==0 to take the trade (EnterLong /EnterShort)

Use Bars.FirstBarOfSession to reset the counter.
