If you exit while the entry condition is met,
It will enter again.

Funchi the entry and exit by the EA is good.
We do not want the EA to enter the same trade again if we close manually, even if the entry conditions are still met.
It should wait for the next valid entry to place a trade.

If I have already traded, I should not enter,

Yes, that is the point. The EA has already traded that entry, it should not repeat that action again for that particular trade if closed manually.
That is, there should be only once exit for every entry the EA places, whether it is closed manually or by the EA.

That definition is difficult.

1. only one entry today?
2. one entry in one hour?

3. one entry on the current entry signal?
Yes, yes . Just one entry for each time the signal is met on the lower time frame.

4. etc.

Did you use the first "FNC Greedy System_X-Gen.tpl"?
This gives entry signals intermittently and frequently.

I have not yet started using the EA because I'm trying to get my strategies right.
I will upload the template and results for you to see once I start.

The solution of only one entry with the current entry signal will break down.

Then, entry is not only done by the EA,
Do we need to manually control whether entry is allowed or not?

The entry by EA is fine. It is only in exit that we want it both EA and manual.

For example, would it be useful to have a column where you can manually change the signal?

No need for that in the EA since since we can do that with the dashboard.

What is the problem in this case?
