Easylanguage help/Is this possible?

[wizardx]

Say I have two entry signals, A and B.

If A has a position on, no other A entries are allowed.
If B has a position on, no other B entries are allowed.
However, mixing A and B entires is allowed. (i.e., if A has a position on, B is allowed, and vice versa.)

I need a way for Easylanguage to distinguish between a market position from entry A vs a market position from Entry B. As far as I can tell, the "marketposition" reserve word cannot do this.

I have tried other workarounds, but can't get it to work perfectly. Can someone please help? Thanks.

lolol! all i had to do was click "Allow for different entry signals only" in preferences. Then make a couple of minor tweaks in the code, and badabing badaboom it's working!
no wonder all the code i tried before didn't work.

Not sure that this is exactly what you're asking, but try this. Give the orders names...

buy ("EntryA") next bar on open;
buy ("EntryB") next bar at buylimit limit;

Then when accessing them in the money management part of your code, try this...

sell from entry ("EntryA") next bar at entrya stop;
sell from entry ("EntryB") next bar at entryb stop;
