You can use the Global Profit/Loss Management feature for this. It is documented here:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GlobalProfitLossManagement.php

But you will need to set it to lock trading for a period of time so no additional orders are submitted by the automated trading system.

You can also use these Spreadsheet cells with formulas to accomplish this:
