MT4 Phone Notifications Without PC Switched On

Hey folks, I need a way to get notifications on my phone while my PC is switched off.

Orders created on your PC are visible in the phone app, does MT4 not have the functionality to sync alerts created on your PC to your MT4 phone app? Is there a way to create alerts on your PC and have them active on your phone while your PC is switched off?

If not, I could potentially use cTrader, if that is able to do what I require?

-----------------

Separate problem: I can't actually get push notifications to work with my PC turned on anyway. I've put the Metaquotes ID from my phone into my desktop platform and it is successfully sending test alerts, but actual alerts aren't working. Any idea what might be wrong? As in the worst case scenario I could potentially leave my desktop PC on all day although this is not something I'm keen to do.

If you manually created that alerts you will have to double click the alert line or somehow go to the alert properties from the terminal and change the action to Notification. Alerts and Notification works separately even through code. Hope this solves the problem!

Not possible to do. Ctrader is every worse when it comes to notification. Use the Swiss FX app if you want price alerts on your phone. If you are looking for notifications from indicators then you need to have the PC on.

Big help thanks mate, it only lets me do 1 iteration unfortunately but maybe that's enough.
