You can't migrate only an indicator to your MQL5 VPS, you need to migrate at least one Expert Advisor along with it.

The easiest way to do this is to open another chart in your local MT5 terminal and attach an EA from the Experts → Examples folder, such as ChartInChart or Controls, which do not place trades.

For a somewhat cleaner approach, code a simple non-trading EA that uses an indicator handle, iCustom(), and ChartIndicatorAdd() to automatically attach the indicator to a chart. Then just attach the EA to a single standalone chart.

Don't forget to automatically remove the indicator from the chart upon removal of the EA─by using ChartIndicatorDelete()... and automatically release the indicator handle from MT5 memory using IndicatorRelease().
