Eleni Anna Branou, 2017.04.10 10:02
Below are step by step instructions, of how to subscribe to a MΤ4 signal:
1. Register a MQL5 account: https://www.mql5.com/en/auth_register
2. Open your MT4 platform and go to Menu >> Tools >> Optios and click on the Community tab. There you put your Login and Password of your MQL5 account and click OK.
3. Go to the search area of your MT4 platform, on the upper right corner (where the magnifying glass is), type in the name of the signal you want to subscribe and click Enter.
4. You will see lower, in the Terminal Window of your MT4 platform, the results of your search. Click on the name of the signal you want to subscribe.
5. Click on the green Subscribe for $$ USD button on the right side of your MT4's Terminal Window.
6. Select the payment method and complete payment for your subscription.
7. In the Options >> Signals window that opens, tick the following options:
8. In the Use no more than: ...... of your deposit (95% maximum) field below, put the percentage of your capital, you want to participate in signal's copying.
9. In the Stop if equity is less than: ...... field, put the amount of your capital, you want to preserve, or leave it empty.
10. In the Deviation/Slippage field, select an option and click OK in the Options window to close it.
11. Now you have completed the subscription process and the only thing you need is a VPS (Virtual Hosting) in order to copy the signal 24/7 without having your MT4 platform open all day long.
12. Go to your account details in the Navigator window of your MT4 platform, right click in your account number or name and select the option Register a Virtual Server.
13. In the Virtual Hosting Wizard window that opens, the VPS with the lower Ping, ms value is presented automatically.
14. Select your payment plan for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months and click Next.
15. Tick the: I agree to the virtual hosting service rules and the auto renewal option below (if you want) and click Next.
16. Complete your payment for the VPS Service.
17. In the next window, tick the Migrate signal: account and settings option, click End and you are done.
If no connection to the server so you should consider to rent MQL5 VPS for MT4/MT5, and it will work fine with this VPS.
Sergey, this is not about vps, this is about the signal server(mql server) not reachable that's why we can't get the signals. Why would you upsell us with a thing that we don't need?
And read this small thread - missing signal trades
Means: if you already subscribed to some signal so you can use VPS too -

Are you using home internet? Signal server is not reachable using your home internet, modem?
If yes so read my posts about MQL5 VPS, because the server is always available if using this VPS.
But it is difficult to help in case you are using home PC or some external VPS.
Because MetaQuotes (Signal service in general) may be responsibe for disconnection if using MQL5 VPS.
But if you are using home internet or other internet so you should start with internet provider support first ..

Please kindly support to resolve the issue.

Hi Larget,
I think this is a problem on their side, a lot of us are also experiencing the same issue. We just have to wait for the mql tech support to look into it.

All answers in the terminal log.
Question number 1: in the Terminal Service - Settings - Community tab is full?
Question number 2: need a terminal log in the form of a text file attached to the message.
Go to the tab "Log" - right-click and the menu "Open" - opens the explorer with a folder which contains the log files. Attach the log file to the message.
Question number 3: Please show a screenshot of the Signals tab:
