Hi diovisgood, This thread reminds me of a comprehensive solution I had developed years ago for MT4 platform to control the execution of Expert Advisor using the MT4 mobile app. In principle, it could be done for Sierra Chart as well. Here's the framework at a high level. 1) In the EA, you code all the "menu" of commands you want EA to do. 1 to close all positions, 2, cancel stop trading when daily profit met etc etc.... A similar menu of commands it could be done in a Alert condition as part of the study collection in Sierra chart. 2) On MT4 mobile, enter pending order(s) with QTY value corresponding to each "menu command" value and at price of 0.0001 far away so the GTC order will never trigger. Manage these pending orders remotely via MT4 mobile to control the EA. It's worked beautifully. Similarly, you could use Sierra Charts' web panel tool to enter such pending orders remotely to control the AUTO trading capabilities. When there are no pending orders, the autotrading should run indefinitely (unless you have some cancel all pending/working orders before exit criteria. Please Let us know which solution you go with as this is something I would want to implement soon as well for all my trading algos once I mature my capability with auto trading. And then you just log in remotely to that server using Windows Remote Desktop ... this is the route I would also take but network latency for Remote Desktop connection needs to be factored. When I tried this, it was just too slow for me. The VPS provider could not do anything about it.
