Attention!

Does anyone know of a way to keep an automated strategy from executing a trade for a specified amount time after closing a trade?
The problem I have is that after a trade closes through a stop or profit target, the conditions that may have initiated the buy/short still exist so that after the trade closes, the strategy enters a buy/short immediately - usually that trade closes out on a stop

I just need the strategy to not trade for the next 10 - 30 minutes.
Thanks

Hi flurbo,

Please try adding to your entry condition BarsSinceEntry().
