Limit open trades and add cooldown before optimizing entries.
If an EA can stack trades without a hard cap, a good-looking signal can still create account-level risk. Exposure controls belong before entry execution.
Search intent

Separate symbol cap from portfolio cap
A max trade rule can apply to one symbol or the full account. Be explicit so tests match live intent.
Use cooldown after entries
Cooldown reduces duplicate trades caused by persistent signals or repeated ticks.
Block loudly
A blocked duplicate should be logged once with the reason, not repeated on every tick.
