The NEM-Watch Platinum Model provides the ability to configure, through the NEM-Watch interface, alarms that are checked and triggered “in the cloud” – remote from your copy of NEM-Watch.
Unlike Local Alarms, Remote Alarms will be checked and triggered even if your local copy of NEM-Watch is not running when the market produces the outcome you are looking for.

Note that the Remote Alarms service is not guaranteed for 100% uptime. It has been developed as an additional piece of functionality in the NEM-Watch package, but has not been developed with layers of redundancy should individual pieces of the process be unavailable for any reason.
