# Pause and resume copy for subscriptions

You can pause active copy-trading and MAM subscriptions, and resume previously paused subscriptions in the Admin panel.

{% hint style="info" %}
PAMM subscriptions can't be paused.
{% endhint %}

When a subscription is paused:

* New positions opened on the master account are no longer copied to the subscribed investment account.
* Previously copied open positions remain active on the investment account and are closed when the corresponding positions on the master account are closed.
* Fee payments continue according to the subscription's fee plan.

## Pause copy for a subscription

To pause copy for a subscription:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Expand the **Copy Trading**, **PAMM**, or **MAM** menu.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Go to **Links**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
If you have several platform instances (such as MT4, MT5, or cTrader), make sure you are in the correct instance, or switch to it using the selector in the upper-left corner of the page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Select the subscription and click the **Actions** button (`⋮`) on the right side of the subscription row, then click **Pause Copy**.

## Resume copy for a subscription

To resume copy for a subscription:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Expand the **Copy Trading**, **PAMM**, or **MAM** menu.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Go to **Links**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
If you have several platform instances (such as MT4, MT5, or cTrader), make sure you are in the correct instance, or switch to it using the selector in the upper-left corner of the page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Select the subscription and click the **Actions** button (`⋮`) on the right side of the subscription row, then click **Activate Link**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.b2copy.b2broker.com/admin-panel-guide/manage-links/pause-and-resume-copy-for-subscriptions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
