Live monitoring for automated trading. We show every account live, watch that your terminal and EA are actually running, alert you the instant anything breaks, and email a branded monthly report. It is read-only — we are not a broker, adviser, fund manager, or VPS host.
No. It is strictly read-only. The connector reports what your account is doing; it cannot place, close or modify a trade, and it never sees your broker password.
Your EAs run on your own terminal — usually on a VPS — exactly as they do now. Stanchion does not host it. If you do not have a VPS yet, use any reputable provider; monitoring works on whatever you already run.
Drop the read-only connector on any chart in your MT4 or MT5 terminal and paste in your token — a one-time, two-minute setup. Your account appears live on your dashboard within about 30 seconds.

Any time, from your dashboard. There is no lock-in and no notice period.
No. Never. A flat monthly fee only. We have no access to your funds and no visibility into your broker balance beyond what your connector reports to your own dashboard.
