hi, I can make lots of nice ea's with your software but would like to do the following. Once the buy signal has been met and placed another buy cand not be made until the first buy has been closed. Theres no option to do this in your current version of the program as far as I can see but maybe you could add it to your next update or hopefully you can show me how to do it. thanks

Maximum Number of Positions = 1 :roll:

If you use mt5 you set max volume (trade size) to match your trade size. In mt4 the concept is number of open positions, in mt5 that concept do not apply since you only have one open position - the position size increases and decreases but it's only one position. Thus in mt5 you should use max volume
