Limiting Operations when using Box ACID Module

I created a Box scenario to watch a folder for new uploads, and when a file is uploaded, it moves that file to a different folder and then deletes it from the original upload folder. It works fine, but due to the Box Watch Folder being an ACID module, it is blowing through operation credits (1,400 a day on average). Ideally, I want the scenario to trigger only when there is a new upload (Instant), but this option is unavailable. I have adjusted the time parameters to operate during business hours, Mon-Fri, but the operation count is still high.

My question: Is there a way to watch for a new file and have it stop if there is nothing there?

Add a filter before the second module to only process when the number of bundles is greater than 0.
