How can I receive an indicator signal when I switch off my computer?

 

Hi, I have a question to see whether anyone can help me to solve.

Since I am trading with my daily job, sometimes I miss the trade entries.

Recently, I bought an indicator, the problem is I can only receive signals when the computer (that one installed MT4) is open.

Can I write some codes to change it so that I still can receive the signals even my computer is off?

thank you so so much!

hi Vladimir, thank you for your help

does it mean if I rent a VPS, so that even my computer is closed, I still can receive signals at 24hours?

A VPS is a computer running 24h. You need to consider what is cheaper and more convenient for you: keeping your home computer on 24h or rent a VPS
