Hi Molanis,
I know you can set the number of open trades in the start icon, but my question is:
If one condition is met open a trade (eg go long).
If a second condition is met open a second trade (eg go long).
If other conditions are met open other trades (eg go long)
That is one at a time, regardless if the setting in START icon is ONE and a long trade is already open. In other words add new trades to the already open trades, for example
EURUSD 1 lot at y:30 p.m.
EURUSD .5 lot at y:45 p.m.
EURUSD 1 lot at y:55 p.m.
and so on. The setting in the START icon Max open trades=1.

Will appreciate your help with this. Thanks.
BA

Do not get your question. Are you saying you want to allow one position per trading condition or that you set it to one and then you have 3?

I mean allowing tradeS with different conditions even though the max trade=1, for the same currency pair.
Thanks.

Got it. That feature is not available. The best way to do it is to create separate eas with different magic numbers.
