Exclude Overlapping Trades in What If

Hi Team,

 

I would like to understand what exactly “Exclude Overlapping Trades” does in What If

 

I have a basket of EA’s with a number of currency pairs

 

When a signal is triggered in any pair it takes many simultaneous trades

 

If I tick the above if another pair is triggered to trade at the “same time” whilst the first lot of positions are still open will it ignore these?

 

-Does it exclude overlapping trades at the TIME the trades are initiated/opened OR does it simply prevent more than one curreny pair trading at ANY point in time?

 

Cheers

 

Chris

It just waits for a trade to exit before taking another (next nearest entry time in case of portfolio) trade into account. No two position should be opened simultaneously while using this ‘filter’
