I think MQL Cloud should be made free, so that developers and traders can come up with brighter ideas. What do you'll think? Should it be made free.

The reason being, the payment for providing agents is so small that one can neglect it and so is the charge for using the agents. I think by making the MQL Cloud free, it will be opened for full potential use(one doesn't need to worry about running out of gas....credits). It will be like a giant super computer made by MQL Community free of charge for the community members. Yes, I understand there are costs to maintain servers at Metaquotes for the Cloud to run, however I am sure it is a miniscule amount which won't hurt the bottom line in a big way.

I think you will find all the users offering their PCs to be part of the Cloud will suddenly turn them off . . . and the Cloud will evaporate.  Suddenly there would be a mass of Users and very few providers . . .

And what about abuse? Don't you think the small fee helps to self regulate that?

Ps> I liked your request a little more after you provided some reasons :) . Before that I'm thinking why make it free. It's already almost free.

 
I generally distributed computer resources free. Only then did the company earns on commission. Not a lot of resources that need to share with others.
