Not open more trades for today

  Hello, im trying to code a sytsem on timeframe 30min but i don’t want it to open more than one trade per day,

  so i tried to use a multitimeframe on daily timeframe section by setting something like ” not tradeindex =0″ in the conditions of the orders because it should return the index of the bar of the last trade (therefore it is 0 if he has already opened a trade today) but it doesn’t work.

  How could it be solved? Thanks

  Use this variable (OTD) as an additional condition to enter a trade:

  OTD = (Barindex - TradeIndex(1) > IntradayBarIndex) // IntradayBarIndex < (Barindex - TradeIndex(1)) limits the (opening) trades till 1 per day (OTD One Trade per Day)

  1	OTD = (Barindex - TradeIndex(1) > IntradayBarIndex)  // IntradayBarIndex < (Barindex - TradeIndex(1)) limits the (opening) trades till  1 per day (OTD One Trade per Day)

  Example:

  Otd = (Barindex - TradeIndex(1) > IntradayBarIndex) // IntradayBarIndex < (Barindex - TradeIndex(1)) limits the (opening) trades till 1 per day (OTD One Trade per Day) MyLongConditions = Not OnMarket AND close CROSSES OVER Average[10,0](close) IF Otd AND MyLongConditions THEN BUY 1 Contract at Market ENDIF SET STOP pLOSS 100 SET TARGET pPROFIT 200

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  Otd              = (Barindex - TradeIndex(1) > IntradayBarIndex)  // IntradayBarIndex < (Barindex - TradeIndex(1)) limits the (opening) trades till  1 per day (OTD One Trade per Day) MyLongConditions = Not OnMarket AND close CROSSES OVER Average[10,0](close) IF Otd AND MyLongConditions THEN    BUY 1 Contract at Market ENDIF SET STOP   pLOSS   100 SET TARGET pPROFIT 200
