Guys, I have a problem (BTW, this problem occour several times in several several conditions)...

Look my code..

   if(Fast_MovingAverage[1] > Slow_MovingAverage[1]  &&  Fast_MovingAverage[0] < Slow_MovingAverage[0])
     {
      Trade.PositionOpen(Symbol(), ORDER_TYPE_BUY, 0.01, Ask, 0, 0, "");
     };
   
   if(Fast_MovingAverage[1] < Slow_MovingAverage[1]  &&  Fast_MovingAverage[0] > Slow_MovingAverage[0])
     {
      Trade.PositionOpen(Symbol(), ORDER_TYPE_SELL, 0.01, Bid, 0, 0, "");
     };


Several positions are opened when, actually, I'd like was opened only one position. How to fix this problem?
 
PS: This code was wrote in "OnTick"

I am assuming that you are testing that on an account that allows hedging.

Add something like this 

   int totalForSymbol=0;
      for (int i=0; i<PositionsTotal(); i++)
         if (PositionGetSymbol(i)==_Symbol) totalForSymbol++;

at the beginning of that code and the before each Trade.PositionOpen() check if(totalForSymbol<1)

Yeah! I already using this ideia!!! xDDD

But, and I want open two positions? Three? Four? Five...

So, this is not a good filter...

I'm thinking about to create a filter with time. Something like this: "If a position was opened in the last 1 min, no open more none position."

In this case, I need to create a chronometer that start with 00:00:00 and start the acconting with the opening of a new position and every time that new position is opened, so the chronometer restart the accounting from zero.

This a good ideia!! I think...

So, in this case, I need to create a chronometer and I don't how do it... kkkk

Then replace the if(totalForSymbol<1) with if(totalForSymbol<2) or if(totalForSymbol<3) or if(totalForSymbol<nnn) and so on ...whatever number you wish to set as the maximum opened at the same time
