How to set the rules on the opening of the buy and sell transactions to be mutually exclusive

Hello

One of my strategy that was generated by SQ3.8.1 allows for either a buy or sell transaction only to be opened at any one time.  For eg if a buy transaction has already been opened, the sell transaction will not be allowed even if all the rules/conditions of the sell have been met.

Is there a setting in the building blocks which control this?  If so which setting is it?  As the strategy had already been generated, would I be able to insert this mutually exclusive buy/sell conditions in the SQ file using the Improver?.  Or if not, how do I adjust in the mq4 file.

TQ

If you want to use SQ to find strategies, where, if an opposite signal occurs, the existing trade is closed, and an opposite trade is opened, then you need to select:

Enter/Reverse at Market (Reverse Position)

In the building blocks.

You can select this in the improver too.
