If I have stop or target orders in the Sierra chart platform, does the actual platform have to be open in order for them to execute? Lets say I have a profit taker limit left open over night but my computer is turned off. Will it still execute? My broker is IB.

This depends if they are in a Pending Child state or not. This is explained in detail here:

Do you know if I have to subscribed to market data with my broker for them to execute the order accurately when my sierra chart is turned of? Right now my data is through sierra chart.

We definitely would not expect that this is a requirement. That would be unlikely.
