In one strategy, I limited the number of open positions in total and per symbol.
All possible positions are now exhausted.

Why do I still receive signals?
This is useless work for me. If I can't make any more purchases because of my chosen setting, I don't want to see signals. Is there anywhere to set this?

In some strategies I get 100 and more signals? What for?

The answer is in the Help > Strategy > Strategy Settings
which I'll copy here for convenience:

Max Open Settings
The "Max Open" settings provide a way to backtest different Position options without the need to change your code. They are applicable in backtesting and not in live trading.

"without the need to change your code" implies that you need to change your code to get the same result. In this case, the strategy has to control signaling for market orders, and, if it's a limit strategy, it's possible you cannot fully control max position since multiple fills could occur on the same bar.
