Is it possible to set the maximum number of open positions? I looked in the global profit/loss management settings, but didn't see it. For example, if I could set the maximum open positions to 1, then if I accidentally hit a buy/sell button more than once, then the second click would not send a second order.

Go to Global Settings >> Symbol Settings and you can set the "Use Global Trade Position Limit" quantity as needed.

You can also individually set the quantity for the Trade Position Limit and Order Quantity Limit by clicking on the Additional 2 tab for each Symbol as well.
