Avoid Opening Trades When Joining Signal

 

Hello MQL5 Community,

We will soon be adding our trading systems as signals for everyone to enjoy. We have come across the issue of what happens if someone joins our signal while there is an open trade. Will the terminal automatically fire up that trade at whatever the market price is or will it skip it and open the next trade?

Thanks in advance for your help.
