Steps:
- MT4 has a built-in facility of supporting mobile alerts and can send alerts to MT4 mobile apps. VATA uses the same facility. To use this facility you must first configure MT4 in a proper way. This set-up has nothing to do with VATA and of part of the standard MT4 set-up. So google it if needed.
- Make sure that you have MT4 running on Windows all the time. If an Internet connection is lost or the computer shuts down you will not receive alerts as they are sent by Windows MT4 directly. If you think you will lose internet connection, power or computer connectivity the best way is to rent a cheap VPS and run your MT4 there without any interruptions. VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a cheap remote Windows computer that you hire but do not own. It runs an efficient and robust infrastructure. It has high-speed internet connectivity. We recommend these VPS providers.
