You don't need to do anything. That is the default built in behavior of
AmiBroker (i.e. single position per symbol, redundant signals ignored).

That is true for the backtester but on the chart the code shows a 1 for buy and
therefore plots an arrow. bc my code says if buy plot..
Now i know i have to write a loop to prevent a buy from showing up, but I am
not sure how meaning a loop that will prevent a sell if I am in a buy.
You don't need to write a loop. Use ExRem.
Buy = ExRem(Buy, Sell);
Sell = ExRem(Sell, Buy);
However, if you plan to also backtest this code, then you would be better off
to not use ExRem directly on Buy and Sell, but rather on temporary variables
and plot the temporary variables instead.
e.g.
Sorry,
My proposal did not take into consideration that you would be doing longs and
shorts. You can ignore my previous post.
