Receiving Signals

 

Hi

If I subscribe to a signal, do I have to have a computer on all the time so that it can receive any new signals ?

A silly question but I remember watching a video somewhere that mentioned it - maybe it pertains to older versions of MT4 ??

Thanks

Thank you for your quick reply.

Mmmm, could be problematic having the comp on all the time, obviously except weekends.

 


Just wondering, are there conflicts if I have MT4 open on a computer at home and on a computer at my office ?

I will have to leave MT4 open on my laptop at home but is it affected by going on standby or sleep mode ? 

 
What do other people do to get around this ?  Having a computer on all the time isn't a good option for me.
