He has not vet used it and does not want to lose hope.j

When I thought about it, i viewed it slightly differently. The way I saw it, Gatsby was finally accepting that he and Daisy would never be together.

The pool was a metaphor for Gatsby's life.

The year was coming to an end, and the Gardener was about to close the pool (A.K.A, Gatsby is about to die).

Gatsby stops the Gardener because he has never used his pool and he wants to enjoy it for the first time. (A.K.A, up to this point, Gatsby has spent his entire life chasing after Daisy, and he's never once actually sat down and enjoyed life. He wants to enjoy his life at least once before he dies.)

Gatsby doesn't drain his swimming pool because it represents his hope and longing for a reunion with Daisy. He believes that one day Daisy will come back to him, and he wants everything to be ready for her, including the pool that he had built for her. Draining the pool would symbolize giving up on his dream of being with Daisy.
