Description

I created a script to detect internet or broker disconnection using getappinfo(aistrategyauto). The idea is that when the auto trading turns off, the script plays a sound to notify me. So, if the internet is disconnected, can the OEC broker profile stop reconnecting after 2 failed attempts? It does not make sense to keep reconnecting indefinitely. There has to be a limit to reconnecting so that eventually the OEC broker profile turns red, the auto trading turns off and my script plays a sound.

Right now, there is no way to limit the broker reconnection attempt. I don't understand why such an obvious and critical feature like limit to broker reconnection attempt is missing.

Steps to reproduce this issue

This is a critical feature request.
