Only one order

[sebdgo]

Dears,
I am searching the way to allow only one enter position when conditions are met, or ban a second enter position as long as at least one condition has not been voided.
Take an example with SMA : Enter a long position when price is above a rising MA, and don't enter a second long position as long as MA has not been returned.
Thanks for your help.
Regards

Hello sebdgo,

Thank you for your inquiry.

The EntriesPerDirection is used to control the number of entry orders that can be submitted into a position. After a position is taken to the EntriesPerDirection amount, any new entries would be ignored until the position is exited. By default this is set to 1.

Another option is adding a bool that is true once you have entered a position, and add a check to make sure the bool is false in your entry condition. For example,

if (goingLong == false && Close[0] > SMA)

{

enterLong();

goingLong = true;

}

You will then want to add another condition to check if MA has been returned, then you can set goingLong back to false.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.
