Can anyone explain why I am getting multiple orders generated from this code?
I want three separate orders generated, instead I get nine.

I have not found any documentation that describes the variables parameters. In the strategy I am already checking this but it does not seem to stop multiple positions opening. They all open in the same bar so I need something that says do this once only per bar.

Hi Use Visual JF Help...  And you should find: https://www.dukascopy.com/vfhelper/articleView.action?id=414&dataId=418&familyKey=Data+Type&request_locale=ENThe help says: "The collection of positions has the amount of position, the Integer data." I am already checking this in the strategy but it is not stopping multiple positions. They all open in the same bar so I need something that says do this once per bar. Thanks

I don't know what you mean with word bar. However, normaly is a Position variable stored in a Positions variable. If it stored in Positions variable than you can iterate Positions with Loop Viewer or Position Viewer to Close all or just some of it. Check example: https://www.dukascopy.com/vfhelper/lastVersionDescriptionView.action?productId=29

Hi,
Your strategy is subscribed to 1mn trading period, this basically means that your conditions will be executed every 1 mn candle (bar) which is currently the case.
How would you need your strategy to trade ? what is the maximum number of open positions allowed at a time ?
Can you explain thoroughly so that we can help you ?
Thanks in advance.

How do I linit this to once only?

Please consider it as a feature request.
The strategies should only be allowed to open only one position by default.
Since I had the same problems I consider it a bug and I am sure it will be fixed in the future versions.
Actually the bug is so serious that I had a margin call on a demo account in a few minutes while the strategy kept opening dozens of positions.
Let's say someone wants to run an automated system with 1mil$ account. Until this bug/bad design won't be fixed they will never consider using visual jforex. There are workarounds, that's ok for me, but not everyone will be willing to accept the risks.
Otherwise I have to say Visual Jforex is an amazing strategy builder. It will become very popular in the next years when it will be stable since it's the best thing around.
