Hi everyone,

I’m fairly new to Bet Angel and currently experimenting with automation in Guardian. I’ve been reading a few threads where people mention limitations when trying to manage risk across multiple markets at once , but I’m wondering about a slightly different scenario.

Is there a way to pause or temporarily disable all active automation rules if a certain condition is met, like a sudden spike in market volatility or unmatched bets building up too quickly?

I’m not necessarily looking for a full stop-loss across markets, more like a safety pause that gives me time to reassess before things get out of control.

Absolutely.

Use a signal or stored value that sets to X when all is fine, and Y when you want to halt all trades. Then add a condition to your trigger rulelines that the signal or stored value must = X.
