Does pausing copy trading close open positions?

Pausing only stops new trades

After you tap Pause (暂停) in My subscriptions, you no longer copy the master's new trades; positions already copied stay open.

While paused, if the master closes, partly closes or changes the stop loss or take profit, the copied positions still follow.

Why it does not close everything

Many strategies hold positions in groups, such as hedges or staged entries. Closing everything at once when pausing can split a hedge and close it at a bad moment, so pausing only stops new trades and closing is left to you.

Closing and resuming

To close copied positions right away, tap Close copied positions (一键平仓) or close them by hand in your own MT5.

To stop following the strategy, tap Stop copying (停止跟单); copied positions are closed.

After you tap Resume (恢复), copying starts from the master's next new trade; trades missed while paused are not added automatically. To add them, tap Catch up (一键补单) to copy the master's current positions at the current market price.

Copy trading involves risk, and a strategy's past performance does not guarantee future returns.

FAQ

What is the difference between Pause and Stop copying?

Pause only stops new trades; copied positions stay open and keep following the master's closes. Stop copying closes the copied positions and ends the subscription.

If the master closes while I am paused, are my positions closed?

Yes. Copied positions still follow the master's closes, reductions and stop-loss or take-profit changes.

Are trades from the paused period added after I resume?

Not automatically. Tap Catch up if you want them, at the current market price.
