Then if I need to take action I just RDP to my trading server to manage a position.

This ^^^

I have "Cisco AnyConnect" which I use to open/manage the VPN and then I use "Remote Deckstop RDP Lite" to control/manage my trading sever. Little small if your looking at a large desktop on your iphone but works great with the ipad.

Cisco Anyconnect and Remote Deckstop RDP Lite both available for free in the apple store.

This is a great idea, unfortunately, depending on your platform is may be extremely difficult to productively work from a phone. I personally don't have access to a mobile app considering I am using Takion, but it would be nice to have something where I can emergency access it from my 4g/lte phone service to close positions quickly. I have a descent amount of battery backup, but if the internet disappears, having access to 4g/lte would be nice in an emergency. I'm aware there are other ways to do this.

I tried to quote you for my last message but it didn't work, I will definitely check those two out.
