Code
input: nWinTrades(5), nLosingTrades(10), nMinutes(10);

var: mp(0), wt(0), lt(0), reftime(0), trade_allowed(false);

mp = marketposition;

if positionProfit(1) > 0 then wt += 1;
if positionProfit(1) < 0 then lt += 1;

if mp <> mp[1] and (wt >= nWinTrades or lt >= nLosingTrades) then begin
	lt = 0;
	wt = 0;
	reftime = time;
	trade_allowed = false;
end;

if time - reftime >= nMinutes then trade_allowed = true;

if trade_allowed then
	…
	<your signal code goes here>
	…
end;
This stops trading for 10 minutes when number of winning trades is equal or greater than 5 or number of losing trades is equal or greater than 10.

Hope this helps.
