How can I modify it to persuade EA 1. to trade only one time after each signal change 2. when opening MT4, wait for the next signal change

A way to do it is to use a global variable. It is pretty simple.
For instance you set it to 1 when you open a BUY and -1 if you open a SELL.
And then to open a new order you check what is the value of this variable.
You can reset the variable to 0 for instance if a new signal appears.
And you do not open a new BUY if the variable = 1.
I hope it is clear.
