In my spreadsheet system for trading I have signal only once per bar set to yes, but it almost always ignores the following signal even though its not in the same bar. Even if there are 5+ consecutive candles all with signals, it won't enter a trade on any of them until we get a candle that doesn't have a signal and then a new candle with a signal. This doesn't make any sense at all.

From what you are stating it sounds like you do not have the option for "Reset Condition on New Bar" set properly. If you want the condition to be reset for each bar, then this Input needs to be set to "Yes". Otherwise, when you get a signal, the formula is not being reset, therefore it stays True. For a signal to generate a trade, it needs to go from False to True. Just staying True does not actually generate a signal.
