How tell an EA to sell at the open minus the ATR.

EX; open price = 1.5000
last ATR = 0.0090
sell price = 1.4910

Something like

if (Bid<= (Open[0]-ATR))

I have an EA which after closing an order reopens a new one on the current signal. How can I tell the EA to open a new order only on the next new signal. I'm using iCustom indies for generating signals.
Thanks for any help!
