[amibroker] Is there a way to ignore the SHORT signal when the built-in stop is in place?

["ezbentley" <ezbentley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi:

My code is as follows:

ApplyStop ( stopTypeTrailing, stopModePercent, 5, True);
Buy = // some condition
Sell = 0;
Short = // some condition
Cover = 0;

Once I enter a long position, I want the stop to be the only way to
exit the market, 
even if a SHORT signal occurs. In other words, I want to ignore the
SHORT signal until 
the stop has been touched. With my current code, the SHORT signal
will cover the 
long position and establish another SHORT position, which is not my
intent. 

Is there a way to detect if a position already exists or to ignore
the SHORT until after 
the stop has been taken out?

I am a newbie. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
