How to code logic to filter out duplicated signals + closing the current position and open the opposite trend position

[nothingness99]

Hi,
Can anyone help me code this
I initially had a long position opened with the condition totalscore[0]>0
Now I am only interested to see the closing signal which is totalscore[0]<0
How do I write the code to instruct TOS to skip the long buying order while I had the long position in place? And once the long position is closed how do I instruct it to open a new sell position with the same signal at the same time? I tried following the commands but it skipped my sell-to-open order:

AddOrder(OrderType.BUY_TO_OPEN, totalscore[0]>0 within 1 bars, close, 100, name = "", arrowColor = Color.GREEN);
AddOrder(OrderType.Sell_TO_close, totalscore[0]<0 within 1 bars, close, 100, name = "", arrowColor = Color.red);

#AddOrder(OrderType.sell_TO_OPEN, totalscore[0]<0 within 1 bars, close, 100, name = "", arrowColor = Color.dark_red);
#AddOrder(OrderType.buy_TO_close, totalscore[0]>0 within 1 bars, close, 100, name = "", arrowColor = Color.dark_green);

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

this might help,

# buysell_template_01

def bn = barnumber();
def na = double.nan;

def buy = ....
def sell = ....

def long;
def short;
if bn == 1 then {
long = 0;
short = 0;
} else if sell and !sell[1] then {
long = 0;
short = 1;
} else if buy and !buy[1]  then {
long = 1;
short = 0;
} else {
long = long[1];
short = short[1];
}


def long_open = !long[1] and long;
def long_close = long[1] and !long;
def short_open = !short[1] and short;
def short_close = short[1] and !short;

Thank you very much...I am implementing your code into my study.
