Trade Copier: What happens when I disable a connection?

Quick answer

Disabling a connection stops new copy actions for that connection.

In most cases:

• New trades will not be copied.
• Existing receiver positions usually remain open (unless you close them manually).

Symptoms (when you need this)

• You disabled a connection and want to know if it closes trades
• You re-enabled and want to know what resumes

What disabling typically affects

New trades

• New master entries will not be copied to the receiver.

Close events / modifications

Depending on your platform and settings:

• Stops/TP modifications may not be copied while disabled.
• Close events may not be copied while disabled.

What disabling does NOT usually do

• It does not automatically close trades on the master.
• It usually does not automatically close receiver trades (unless you explicitly choose a close-all action in settings).

Best practice

If you need to pause copying safely:

1. Disable the connection
2. Manually manage or close receiver positions if needed
3. Re-enable when ready

Verify behavior

1. Disable the connection
2. Place a tiny test trade on the master
3. Confirm in Logs that it was not copied
