Hello bofygym7, thanks for writing in.

In the strategy builder, you can check the current market position of the strategy. You can also add a boolean variable to the script in the Inputs and variables section and add it in as a part of the trade condition so that it only triggers once. e.g.

if(MyBoolean && <conditions to trade>)
{
//go long
MyBoolean = false; // set to false, then reset to true when ready to go long again
}

How exactly you add it depends on the entry conditions of your strategy/ how your strategy is designed. Please see this example we have on checking the market position:
