Manual approval

Review each signal before it executes — the safest way to evaluate a new source or parser setting.

How it works

  1. 1

    Turn it on

    Per account under Settings → Trading, or per channel if you only want it for one source.

  2. 2

    Signals queue instead of executing

    Each entry shows the raw message, what the parser extracted, the computed lot size and the target account.

  3. 3

    Approve or reject

    Approving sends the order immediately. Rejecting logs the reason and drops it.

  4. 4

    Unattended entries expire

    A pending signal expires after its window so a stale setup cannot fire hours later.

When to use it

  • The first days with any new provider — you see parse quality before it costs anything.
  • After changing symbol mappings or multi-target behaviour.
  • On low-confidence signals only, by setting a confidence threshold instead of blanket approval.
  • Around high-impact news, if you would rather decide case by case than blanket-block.

The cost

Manual approval trades latency for control. Scalping signals with a ten-pip stop are usually not worth approving by hand — by the time you tap yes, the entry has moved. Use it to validate, then automate.

Send the raw signal, the timestamp and the account name — that is usually enough to answer on the first reply.
