Why Virtual Hosting On The MetaTrader 4 And MetaTrader 5 Is Better Than Usual VPS

Renting a virtual server right from the MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 terminals is the optimal way to ensure uninterrupted work of your trading robots and Signal subscriptions. Essentially, it is an analogue of a VPS though it is better and more suitable for addressing needs and challenges that a trader comes across. The server can be rented straight from your MetaTrader. It takes only a couple mouse clicks for Experts Advisors, indicators, scripts together with Signal subscriptions and settings to be transferred to the virtual server. The Virtual Hosting Cloud network was developed specially for MetaTrader and has all the advantages of a native solution.

Certainly, there are alternatives to virtual hosting but a closer look reveals that they do not compete. The first thing that comes to mind is using a home computer as a budget option. It could work, however a stable internet connection and uninterrupted power supply are not guaranteed. A VPS can be rented from a suitable provider found on the internet. That could be feasible but it implies a manual search for a server having minimum latency with the required Forex-broker's. Such a puzzle does not suit everyone.

Automatic licensing of purchased products without spending available activations is provided only for the virtual terminal.

There is no straight forward answer. It depends on how resource intensive, whatever it is your are running, is. With your description no sensible answer can be given.

I disagree with Sergey MQL VPS is the best. It is certainly not. It all depends on the specific situation and needs. 

 

For 7000 clients we require the servers, they should trade and connect regularly

We work like this: massively (we have a large farm) we use servers with 512/768 Gb RAM, double sockets of 40-56 cores, the most heaped up SSD disks.


And then we are persuaded to support Windows XP.
