What it does

Manual pause switch for new entries. When ON, ACondor stops opening any new positions across all engines but continues managing and closing existing positions normally. This is the same as clicking the pause button on the dashboard. Use it when you want to let the book run off naturally without adding new exposure, for example ahead of a major macro event, during a vacation, or while reviewing bot behavior.

When to change it

Turn ON any time you want to stop new entries without stopping management. Turn OFF to resume normal entry scanning. The dashboard pause button toggles this same setting.

Safe range

ON or OFF.

Example

FOMC day. You pause entries at 9:30 AM so no new positions open during the announcement. Existing positions are still managed and will close at their profit targets. After the announcement you unpause.
